• Support - Having an associate editor with prokaryotic cell bio and synthetic biology will be useful. Especially, their work with ASAPbio and TRANSPOSE shows a clear commitment to a breadth of OA projects. T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo)^talk 01:32, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
  • Per Sylvain below, I agree that their experience would also be particularly valuable to the editorial board. T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo)^talk 01:20, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
• Support - I'll let the biologists speak about biology, and only comment on the 'open' aspect. Jessica Polka is manifestly very experienced at a senior level in advancing open scientific publishing. She could help the journal evolve from its current experimental status, towards a more mature organization. I would also support an application to the editorial board (rather than associate editor).
