In March 2012, I got notifi ed by Board of Trustees of the Taiwanese Society of Psychiatry for being appointed for the second three-year term of the editor-in-chief for the Taiwanese Journal of Psychiatry. With pleasure, I am accepting this chance to continuously serve the readership of the TJP. As shown in the inside cover page of the TJP in this issue, I have defi ned proudly the “scope” of the TJP, “to publish high quality basic and clinical research in psychiatry, with the goal of promoting and disseminating psychiatric knowledge to improve patients’ care in the world. Articles on clinical, laboratory and social research in psychiatry and other related disciplines that are of interest to the psychiatric and mental health care profession are eligible for consideration.” To achieve this global goal and to attract articles from other related disciplines, I have added both international advisory board (with 18 members) and multidisciplinary advisory board (with 12 members) to give inputs to the TJP. Furthermore, the TJP has been budgeted extra space for regularly including invited overviews or similar appropriate contributors from international guests. |
