- Given the lack of open experience, I think the applicant should be considered for associate editor position. @Rwatson1955: and @Mikael Häggström: Did this individual provide more information since our latest follow-up in May? OhanaUnitedTalk page 02:01, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

- Being followed up by Rwatson1955 (discuss • contribs) 12:50, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
- Note: The applicant mentioned that he used to edit under the account User:Borne, to whicch he lost hte password and subsequently edited anonymously before signing up for user:Bornehelm (which is why that account doesn't show edit history back to 2006). T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo)talk 12:05, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support - Though the application itself is slim, I think he is actually quite a good candidate. The work done under the old User:Borne account was relevant and expertise in anesthesiology and pain medicine would be of use to the board. His work with BMC Anesthesiology is particular useful, since BMC is one of the most established OA publishing groups. T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo)talk 12:30, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support likewise, having cleared up the confusion over his Wikipedia page, I support this one. Rwatson1955 (discuss • contribs) 02:01, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Editorial board application of Alfred Amendolara[edit source]
Alfred Amendolara MS, DO (3rd year student, expected graduation 2025) (website)
Areas of expertise: neuroscience/neurology, machine learning and AI, epidemiology
Relevant experience:
- Professional - My research interests are fairly diverse and span from designing and implementing machine learning models to investigating the neuronal pathways responsible for central pattern generation. I initially worked as a graduate research assistant at Fortune Lab at New Jersey Institute of Technology. During this time I completed my thesis which modeled influenza trends using cutting edge machine learning tools. I went on to work as a research associate at Severi Lab, also at New Jersey Institute of Technology for several years. There I investigated zebra fish motor circuitry using both behavioral experiments and, more recently, computational modeling. I continue to be affiliated with NJIT, although no longer in a paid position. I am currently a 3rd year medical student. I spent the first year in the Addiction Lab at Brigham Young University performing electrophysiological experiments investigating the neural pathways responsible for alcohol dependence. I am currently working in the Payne Lab at Noorda College of Osteopathic Medicine as a graduate research assistant. Here I lead a number of projects including protein modeling of KCC2 channels in the brain (in order to investigate its role in addiction behaviors) as well as several in progress systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Additionally I am involved in an on-going clinical trail investigating mechanical nerve stimulation for the treatment of migraines. Over the past year I have actively regularly in reviewing for a number of journals.
- Publishing - Founding co-Editor-in-chief of Intermountain Journal of Translational Medicine. I currently serve as the co-editor-in-chief of Intermountain Journal of Translational Medicine, a newly formed peer-reviewed journal published by Noorda College of Osteopathic Medicine aimed at early career researchers in the United States and beyond. We hope to complete our first issue by December of this year.
- Open - I have edited Wikipedia pages in the past as a none-registered user.
I confirm that I will act in accordance with the policies of the WikiJournal of Medicine. Alfred Amendolara (discuss • contribs) 05:12, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
