Dear PEtab community members,

I am happy to announce that the new PEtab editors are Dr. Fabian Fröhlich and Paul Jonas Jost. Their 3-year terms will begin in March.

There were only two nominations for two positions this year. As there is no veto and one vote is sufficient to elect an editor, the nominees accepted their nominations and elections after they each received a formal vote from me.

A warm welcome to Fabian and Paul. Many thanks to Dr. Matthias König for promoting and contributing to PEtab, and especially the upcoming PEtab v2, during his term.

Kind regards,

Dilan
on behalf of the PEtab editors
