**Meet the editor**

Dr. Snježana Jurić currently works as a project advisor at the Ruđer Bošković Institute (RBI) in Zagreb, Croatia. Her scientific interests are strongly shaped around plant science; she is curious to discover how unknown proteins and protein interactions fit into the great fundamental processes, such as photosynthesis and flowering. Dr. Jurić completed her PhD thesis in Zagreb in 2010

and her postdoctoral study in Seoul under the mentorship of Prof. Ji Hoon Ahn, one of the world's leading researchers in the genetics of flowering, in 2014. She published several peer-reviewed articles; one chapter in the book *Electron Transfer Routes in Oxygenic Photosynthesis: Regulatory Mechanisms and New Perspectives*, published by InTech; and two chapters in the book *Methods in Molecular Biology*, published by RBI. Dr. Jurić is also interested in the project-oriented funding and development of leadership skills in science; she qualified as a professional specialist of project management in 2014. When not exploring the fascinating world of plants, she is reading science fiction literature and writing theatre play scripts.
