Spectroscopy’s Editorial Advisory Board is a group of distinguished individuals assembled to help the publication fulfill its editorial mission to promote the effective use of spectroscopic technology as a practical research and measurement tool. With recognized expertise in a wide range of technique and application areas, board members perform a range of functions, such as reviewing manuscripts, suggesting authors and topics for coverage, and providing the editor with general direction and feedback. We are indebted to these scientists for their contributions to the publication and to the spectroscopy community as a whole.
