Editorial board

Lumora journals are led by an editor-in-chief supported by a subject-fit editorial board, named on each journal page. Journals launching in 2026–27 accept submissions while their editorial boards are being appointed; each journal page shows its current editor-in-chief and board, or states that they are being appointed.

Named editorial boards are published on the OJS journal portals: MHJ, JDA, JGM, JGS, and JAN.

Role of the editorial board

  • Uphold the journal’s scholarly standards, scope, and integrity.
  • Guide editorial policy and support fair, unbiased peer review.
  • Help build a qualified reviewer community and attract quality submissions.

Editor-in-chief

Each editor-in-chief or editorial leadership group holds responsibility for editorial decisions and for protecting the independence and quality of the journal. Ali Aleid serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Lumora Journal of Dermatology, Aesthetic Medicine and Skin Science, Abdulsalam Aleid serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Lumora Journal of Anesthesiology, Intensive Care Unit, and Pain Management, and Ayman Kharaba serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Multidisciplinary Healthcare Journal.

Appointment principles

  • Members are appointed for relevant scholarly expertise and standing.
  • Boards aim for breadth across the journal’s subject areas.
  • Members are expected to follow Lumora’s Publication Ethics and Editorial Policies.
