Netto Named Editor-in-Chief of Modern Pathology The UAB Department of Pathology is excited to celebrate George J. Netto, M.D., Robert and Ruth Baker Endowed Chair, as the Editor-in-Chief of Modern Pathology, a publication of the United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology. Modern Pathology concentrates on all aspects of diagnostic human pathology, contemporary issues pertinent to diagnostic accuracy, reviews, illustrative cases, Academy news and clinical medicine directly related to pathology practice. The journal has an impact factor of 6.365 and ranks 5/75 for all pathology journals. Modern Pathology provides a forum for the understanding of the pathologic processes and evaluation of new and existing diagnostic applications of scientific advances and clinical pathologic correlations; fostering the acquisition and maintenance of up-to-date information to ensure high standards of practice; and encouraging the publication of new information. Dr. Netto’s vision for the journal moving forward encourages original manuscripts on emerging predictive biomarkers for immune therapy, the impact of machine learning and artificial intelligence on digital pathology, applied informatics, genomics and precision diagnostics. He plans to implement a restructured review process that enhances the author experience and accelerates timelines from submission to publication. In addition, as editor-in-chief, he will work to reduce peer review from 21 to 14 days. This efficiency will be aided by a new editorial team supported by a diverse global editorial board. Look for an enhanced social media footprint for the journal as well.
