Prof. Travis Sawyer was recently named an Associate Editor for the new SPIE journal Biophotonics Discovery, an online-only Open-Access journal dedicated to biology, healthy physiology, and pathophysiology based on the unique capabilities of novel and emerging biophotonic techniques. The journal is currently open to submission and expects to publish the first issue in early 2024. Also participating in the journal is Prof. Jennifer K. Barton, Director of the BIO5 Institute and joint faculty at Wyant College. Barton serves as one of the new journal's Senior Advisory Editors. 

Prof. Sawyer would like to invite those interested to contact him with questions. In particular please feel free to contact him with questions about submissions discussing label-free biomedical imaging techniques and translational imaging devices. Prof. Sawyer's research specializes in developing new imaging techniques and technologies for the early detection of cancers including ovarian, skin, esophageal, and stomach cancers.  More about Prof. Sawyer's collaborative work is available on his website, and how he is creating partnerships to investigate cancer studies and innovations with the Cancer Center, Banner-University Medical Center, the University of Cambridge, and industry partners.

Prof. Matt Eichenfield took on the role of Associate Editor for the new Optica Quantum, an online-only Open-Access journal dedicated to high-impact results in quantum information science and technology (QIST), as enabled by optics and photonics. The first issue of Optica Quantum was published October 2023 and continues to accept submissions. Optica Quantum will continue to be published bi-monthly (resulting in six issues/year).

Prof. Eichenfield invites those interested to contact him with questions. Additionally, please contact him with questions about submissions discussing quantum phoTonics as well as papers considering high-impact research in quantum phoNonics, his specialty. Prof. Eichenfield's research also specializes in expanding experimental integrated devices in design, fabrication, and testing of chip scale photonic, phonic, and acoustoelectric devices—all of which will be essential to the perspective he brings to this new journal.
