The Journal of Young Investigators (JYI, www.jyi.org) is an on-line science journal dedicated to publishing excellent undergraduate research papers and feature-type science articles covering all fields of science. Founded in 1997, JYI's staff members currently represent over 30 different academic institutions and are in 8 countries. JYI has been featured in Nature, EurekAlert!, Chemical Engineering News, The New York Times and The
Chronicle on Higher Education.

Associate Editors and Science Journalists work with university faculty mentors and
professionals in the science writing community to write and edit outstanding research papers and feature articles. Feature Editors and Research Editors work with Science Journalists and Associate Editors to produce articles for publication. The Senior Features Editor and the
Editor-in-Chief coordinate the day-to-day functioning of the journal, and work to expand access to additional learning experiences. The Webmaster coordinates publication of feature and research articles on line, institutes website improvements and tends to the web site, as well as coordinating the web team. The Director of Public Relations coordinates the recruitment efforts of the journal, and works with the Public Relations Staff to produce
high quality PR materials, and works to increase the awareness of JYI around the world. The graphic designers implement multimedia features and images or figures to be used in conjunction with the published articles.

JYI provides an unprecedented opportunity for undergraduate students to work as part of an editorial team dedicated to producing a top-notch scientific journal geared to address their needs. JYI is a great testing ground for students contemplating a career in science writing, and provides undergraduate scientists with an opportunity to experience scientific publishing. Because JYI's undergraduate staff generally leaves the journal after graduating, applications are accepted year-round. For application instructions, go to:
