The Annual Review of Food Science and Technology was first published in 2010 by the nonprofit publisher Annual Reviews.[3] Its founding co-editors were Todd R. Klaenhammer and Michael P. Doyle.[4][5] Following Klaenhammer's retirement,[6][7] David J. McClements became co-editor in 2019.[8] As of April 2021, McClements is the sole editor.[9] Though it was initially published in print, as of 2021 it is only published electronically. Some of its articles are available online prior to the volume publication date.[10]
The Annual Review of Food Science and Technology is helmed by the editor or the co-editors. The editor is assisted by the editorial committee, which includes associate editors, regular members, and occasionally guest editors. Guest members participate at the invitation of the editor, and serve terms of one year. All other members of the editorial committee are appointed by the Annual Reviews board of directors and serve five-year terms. The editorial committee determines which topics should be included in each volume and solicits reviews from qualified authors.[13] Unsolicited manuscripts are not accepted. Peer review of accepted manuscripts is undertaken by the editorial committee.[14]
Editors of volumes
Dates indicate publication years in which someone was credited as a lead editor or co-editor of a journal volume. The planning process for a volume begins well before the volume appears, so appointment to the position of lead editor generally occurred prior to the first year shown here. An editor who has retired or died may be credited as a lead editor of a volume that they helped to plan, even if it is published after their retirement or death.
