Kevin Jackson is an associate professor at the University of Illinois at CU.  I first met Kevin many years ago at a CAR Conference (while he was still a doctoral student I believe) and he was a co-author on one of the papers presented. Kevin has progressed into being a strong scholar in the area of financial accounting experimental research (with papers published in all the normal outlets including TAR and CAR). He takes over the BRIA portfolio in this area from Brooke Elliott who will be moving to TAR under their new regime.  While this is Kevin’s first masthead appointment I have seen his work as a reviewer when I have edited for other journals.  Financial Accounting experimental researchers can be assured that their papers are in good hands with Kevin and the team of editorial board members he brought along with him.
