Beth M. Hovey, Ph.D. Editorial Director Beth.Hovey@jove.com Beth holds a Ph.D. from the Graduate Program of Molecular Medicine at the Boston University School of Medicine where her research focused on a rare hematological malignancy/protein misfolding disease, AL amyloidosis. Her thesis work focused on developing novel therapies and generating new in vivo models for this deadly disease. Prior to obtaining her Ph.D., Beth completed her bachelor’s degrees in Molecular Cellular Developmental Biology (MCDB) and Biochemistry with a minor in Chemistry at the University of Colorado at Boulder. She was also a research associate at a biotech company working with siRNA. Beth knows firsthand how valuable visualized methods protocols can be; she learned techniques during her postdoctoral fellowship by watching video protocols published in JoVE. As an editor, she hopes to guide authors through the publication process, allowing dissemination of their methods and technique to the greater scientific community. Beth was recently elected to the Board of Directors for the Massachusetts Chapter of the Association for Women in Science (AWIS). |

Ward Parry Director of Library Relations Ward.Parry@jove.com Ward considers Jaws to be "the finest thing ever committed to celluloid" which makes his passion for surfing even more surprising. Red is his favorite color and fish tacos are his favored meal, but if he was on death row, he would probably take Tiramisu as his final meal. Somewhat less importantly he began his career at Saatchi London in 2002, before moving to Ketchum PR a few years later. After two successful years at Ketchum he moved to the Guardian newspaper. He now works at JoVE and like all his colleagues, writes about himself in the third person...which is weird. |
