Thank you Peter for your response and interest.

I have a wide experience in Editorial and making very succesful Special Issues for various from Cancer Letters, Seminars in Cancer Biology, Mutation Research and others...

What I am looking is some paid Editorial task or position not only in Radiation Biology but also in DNA damage and repair, biophysics, carcinogenesis etc. In Journals or Publishing houses etc.

The idea about Japan is very good since Iam one of the few non-Japanese scientists awarded the prestigious Terashima award with Dr. Megumi Hada for the Journal of Radiation Research. 

I have done also a lot of consulting in some companies and run different grants.

Dear Alex,

Dr Weisburd, living in the Tsukuba science city area, is an editor and manager of an editing company, and has very long experience of working in Japan:

Dear Dr Georgakilas,

Thanks very much for joining. I do not have any direct connection with researchers involved in radiation biology, but it is certain that a lot of work is now being done in Japan in the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear meltdowns. This may involve not just field studies of the effects of radiation but new kinds of experiment to understand issues that have arisen from that particular event, and the ongoing release and redistribution of radioactive materials.

I can however recommend an editorial company in Japan that may have direct contacts in this area. Please let me know if this is of interest.

Peter (Admin.)
