A message from Dr James Stoxen DC., FSSEMM (hon) FWSSEM
Editor-In-Chief, Journal of Orthopaedic Science and Research

I would like to thank Athenaeum Scientific Publishers for the opportunity to serve as the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Orthopaedic Science and Research. In my role as the Editor-in-Chief, I will work diligently to assist in defining and adjusting the journals mission and to adapt to the evolving needs of the readership. I will accomplish this by consultation with other contributing members of the journal’s editorial board.

I will assist the journal in appointing editorial board members who have research interests in line with the scope of the Journal of Orthopaedic Science and Research. Editorial board members will be well respected in the orthopedic community and involved in research and will have published in scholarly journals. Each board member should have substantial experience in reviewing manuscripts and an inclination to improve the journal.

Together, we will work hard to develop and recruit an effective editorial board with top doctors and research scientists who remain active will be critical in ensuring the journal’s health and success. Each editorial board member should feel valued and have a sense of ownership over the journal. Once we have selected the members of the editorial board, it is my goal to keep the editorial board energized and actively participating.

I will also work from this optimal position to maintain a broad overview of the review process through the other members of the editorial board. Keeping board members informed about the latest developments on the journal and soliciting ideas for future improvements will serve to improve the readership of the journal.

Finally, I will serve as the ambassador of the journal. I will encourage editorial board members to introduce the journal to doctors and scientists at medical conferences and through social media to read and publish manuscripts in the journal.

I warmly invite all the eminent scientific researchers and medical experts working in the field to submit their imperative work in the journal, as I ensure you the quality rigorous peer review process and the complete smooth publication process for your submissions.
