A Farewell, A Welcome...
Robert J. Stanley, Editor in Chief
rstanley{at}uabmc.edu
Since the beginning of my editorship in the summer of 2003, my Deputy
Editor and right-hand man has been Dr. Eric J. Stern, at the University of
Washington. Eric has been an essential member of the editorial team who has
been with me through all of our enjoyable efforts and difficult transitions
these past 4 years, including the institution of our electronic manuscript
submission and peer review system (twice), the internationalization of our
manuscript reviewer team, and the subsequent tsunami of manuscript
submissions, which necessitated doubling his workload. Eric has performed his
role as Deputy Editor in an exemplary manner, and I am deeply appreciative of
all of his efforts and contributions on behalf of the AJR and the
American Roentgen Ray Society during these past 4 years.
Although our virtual editorial team model of editors scattered around the
country has worked very well, as of July 1, 2007, I decided that it would be
better for the function of the editorial office to bring an associate editor
into my Birmingham office, and as such, am reorganizing the editorial team of
the AJR. Since Dr. Stern has declined my invitation to move to
Birmingham, deciding to stay in beautiful Seattle, I have identified a local
UAB faculty member to join the editorial team as a new associate editor, Dr.
Mark Lockhart. So as not to lose his invaluable editorial experience, Dr.
Stern will be transitioning to a new position as Senior Consulting Editor. I
personally and publicly wish to thank Dr. Stern for his 4 years of meritorious
and invaluable service to me, the Journal, the ARRS, and our specialty of
radiology.
