Editorial Board

The editorial board of The Journal of Medicine, Law & Public Health. Editorial decisions rest with the Editor-in-Chief, who is responsible for the journal's compliance with its publication ethics policy. Correspondence about a manuscript in progress should go to the editorial office. Each entry gives the member's academic rank or professional position and institutional affiliation. Members are reached through the editorial office; the Editor-in-Chief and the Deputy Editor-in-Chief also list their own addresses.
