Editorial Fellowship - Call for Applications

Annals of Family Medicine Editorial Fellowship Call for Applications

The Annals of Family Medicine sponsors a one-year Editorial Fellowship in medical editing, peer review, and medical journal production.

The Fellowship is designed for an individual with relevant background who wishes to build skills and gain experience through active participation in the Annals editorial team. The Fellow will participate in manuscript decisions, strategic planning for the journal, editorial team conference calls, and the journal’s annual Editorial Advisory Board meeting. Opportunities may be available to contribute to Annalsfeatures, such as guest editorials or the Annals Journal Club.

In addition, the fellow will work on journal-related special projects based on areas of personal interest and the needs of the journal. Examples of special projects include the following.

  • Recruit peer reviewers
  • Participate in outreach to particular readers, commenters, and knowledge user groups
  • Write content for the Annals website
  • Plan and edit an Annals “virtual issue”

The Fellowship is part-time, approximately 3 to 8 hours per week; most work is online and by conference call. Fellows will work from their own locations and will not relocate.

The Fellowship is unpaid; the Annals will cover expenses related to Fellowship activities. The Annals will also cover travel expenses to attend editorial and publishing meetings, which may include (1) a meeting with the editor, editorial staff, and publishing staff; (2) the annual Editorial Advisory Board meeting; or (3) editorial team retreats. All travel is in accordance with the Annals travel policy.

Candidates must have grounding and experience in family medicine or primary care. Other requirements include a clinical degree or a graduate-level degree in a field relevant to primary care, strong writing skills, and the ability to work well in a long-distance team environment.

The start date for the Fellowship is flexible and will be negotiated when the Fellow is selected.

To apply, send a CV and letter of interest that states the candidate's relevant skills and interests to AnnFamMed@umich.edu by December 31st, 2020. In the letter, please describe a journal-related project you might like to work on during the Fellowship. (The Fellow will have the option of modifying the project or selecting a different project during the Fellowship.)

For further information, please contact the Annals at AnnFamMed@umich.edu.
