Editorial team and staff

Scientific Directors

The Directors are in charge of supervising the Editorial Board, monitoring the quality of the Journal of Quantum Science (JQuant) and selecting editors. The Scientific Directors are first instance for an appeal in cases of disagreement between authors and editors.

  • Rosario Fazio (ICTP and University of Naples "Federico II", Italy)
  • Yaron Oz (Tel Aviv University, Israel)

Advisory Board

The Advisory Board advises on the journal’s scientific policy and periodically reviews its content, offering long-term strategic guidance.

  • Pasquale Calabrese (SISSA, Trieste, Italy)
  • Jose Ignacio Latorre (Centre for Quantum Technologies, Singapore)
  • Sofia Vallecorsa (CERN, Geneva, Switzerland)
  • Peter Zoller (University of Innsbruck, Austria)

Editorial Board

The Editorial Board is JQuant's most important asset. Editors are in charge of the peer-review of submissions and take themselves the final decision on whether or not to publish a contribution. The Editor in charge therefore takes full responsibility for the manuscripts they handle.

The JQuant Editorial Board is composed by:

Editorial Office

The Editorial Office oversees the journal’s daily operations, monitors editorial activities, supports authors, editors, reviewers, and readers, and works closely with all parties involved to ensure the timely resolution of any issues or delays.

The IT and Development team at SISSA Medialab develop and maintain the JQuant software system, an open-source platform based on Janeway.

The platform supports the entire editorial workflow, from submission and peer review through production to publication. Developers at SISSA Medialab work closely with the Janeway community to ensure continuous development aligned with users’ needs and the evolving publishing landscape, while maintaining reliability and scalability.
