Meet the editorial board of the Journal of Neurochemistry, featuring leading experts in neurochemistry research and publishing
Sandra is Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Neurochemistry and Beverly Petterson Bishop Professor Emerita of Neuroscience at Syracuse University. Her research explores how interactions between neurons and astrocytes influence brain injury and protection, with particular interests in inflammation, glutamate transport, stroke and epilepsy. She also served as a Programme Director at the US National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), overseeing research on cerebrovascular disease and neuroprotection. A recipient of the 2020 NINDS Landis Award for Outstanding Mentorship, she brings to her editorial role a commitment to supporting researchers and promoting fair, constructive peer review.
Alexei is Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Neurochemistry and Professor of Neurophysiology at the University of Manchester. His research explores how glial cells support brain function and contribute to neurological disease, with particular interests in astrocyte biology, calcium signalling and brain ageing. His work has helped establish the importance of communication between neurons and glia and identified astrocyte dysfunction as a contributor to neurodegeneration, including Alzheimer’s disease. An elected member of Academia Europaea and the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, he brings expertise in cellular neuroscience and scientific publishing to his role in advancing neurochemical research.
