It is very sad, but we all know that is not only JHE. Most of Paleoanthropology Journals follow these uncolegial praxis.
Resignation of the Journal of Human Evolution Editorial Board: We are saddened to announce the resignations of The Joint Editors-in-Chief, all Emeritus Editors retired or active in the field, and all but one Associate Editor. Press release below.
🏺 Out today, a new #HumanOrigins podcast co-produced by the The Australian Museum, University of Sydney (@amymosigway.bsky.social ), and BreakThru productions, which I was happy to contribute to!
