Kosova Journal of Surgery: Call for Associate Editors

As the Kosova Journal of Surgery (KJS) continues to grow, we are pleased to announce the
addition of associate editors in various clinical areas. We invite applications from dedicated and
qualified professionals to join our editorial team as Associate Editors in the following fields:

– Cardiac Surgery
– Thoracic Surgery
– Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
– Surgical Intensive Care and Anesthesia
– Pediatric Surgery
– General Surgery
– Urology
– Plastic, Reconstructive and Burn Surgery
– Orthopedic Surgery
– Gynecologic, Obstetrics, and Infertility

Furthermore, KJS will start publishing 5-7 articles on specific focused
reviews, like those found in the European Journal of Trauma and
Emergency Surgery with each issue. You are welcome to propose such
focused reviews and serve as a lead editor. In this role, you will be
responsible for identifying and recruiting the authors of these review
papers, and it is expected that you and possibly your co-editor(s) will
write a short editorial to introduce the focused review to the readers.
These articles will undergo a peer review process like other submitted
papers. Eventually, this focused review initiative will grow to mirror the
quality and impact of publications like the Surgical Clinics of North
America.

About the Role:
As an Associate Editor at KJS, you will serve a term of three years in
this position, with the opportunity to extend for an additional term of
three more years. You will play a pivotal role in shaping the quality and
direction of our journal. Your responsibilities will include:
– Reviewing manuscripts within your area of expertise to assess their
suitability for publication.

– Identifying and recommending qualified peer reviewers for the
evaluation of submissions.
– Making decisions on whether to reject a paper outright or to send it for
peer review.
– Collaborating with the Editor in Chief to suggest outcomes based on
reviewers’ feedback.

Qualifications:
We are looking for individuals with a strong background and proven
expertise in their respective surgical specialties. Strong analytical skills,
attention to detail, and a commitment to upholding the high standards of
academic publishing are essential.

Why Join Us?
Becoming an Associate Editor with KJS, the only scientific clinical
journal with its own ISSN for both printed and online in Kosova
provides an opportunity to engage with cutting-edge research, contribute
to the advancement of surgical knowledge, and enhance your
professional profile within the global medical community.
