Surgery Journal Editors Group

Welcome to the Surgery Journal Editors Group (SJEG) website!

Below is a comprehensive list of names of surgery journals, along with the editors in chief. If the editor name is incorrect, or the title is missing, we may not have up-to-date information on your journal.

List of surgery journals and editors in chief

We ask that all surgery journal editors make a pledge “To strive for diversity in the peer review process and among the editorial boards and editorial leaders.”

To date, 129 surgery journals have signed on to this pledge.

If you are a surgery journal editor and have not yet signed up for the pledge but would like to, please email the SJEG chair, Melina Kibbe, MD, FACS, at melinakibbe@virginia.edu.

For more information on gender and publishing, see the report by Elsevier on “The Researcher Journey Through a Gender Lens.” The report can be downloaded here.

If you have any questions about the SJEG, please contact the chair, Dr. Melina Kibbe, at melinakibbe@virginia.edu.
