Virginia M. Barbour is a professor at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Brisbane, Australia, and serves as the Director of the Australasian Open Access Strategy Group.[1][2] She is best known for being one of the three founding editors of PLOS Medicine, and her various roles in championing the open access movement.[3][4]

Education

Barbour pursued a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MB BChir) degree and Master of Arts (MA) degree at the University of Cambridge.[when?] This was followed by a Doctor of Philosophy degree in molecular medicine[5] at the University of Oxford where her research investigated the control of alpha globulin genes and was awarded in 1997.[5][6]

Career and research

Following her education and training, Barbour served as an executive editor at The Lancet between 1994 and 2004.[3] Barbour was one of the three founding editors of PLOS Medicine (2004–2013), and later served as the PLOS Medicine Editorial Director (2012–2014), and the PLOS Medicine and Biology Editorial Director (2014–2015).[3][7] Barbour has also served as a chair of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) for two terms (2012–2015; 2015–2017).[3][7][8][9] She serves as the director of the Australasian open access strategy group (2015–present), and works as a part-time professor between the Office of Research Ethics & Integrity and the Division of Technology, Information and Learning Services, at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Brisbane, Australia.[3][6][7][8]

Barbour has published over 100 peer reviewed publications, generating over 14,000 citations and has an h-index of 20.[1][2] She has played a role in developing several reporting guidelines and open-access initiatives, including Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT), Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), Healthcare Information For All (HIFA) and Evidence AID.[6]

Selected publications
