a glance to 2011

welcome to 2012. i hope this year will provide us with interesting innovations in both science and technology, which will affect our lives and practices in very significant ways. this has been a fantastic year for drj and certainly for me. as i look back at the previous year, there is much to be proud of. we increased the journal frequency from biannual to quarterly, and now it is bimonthly. we have significantly increased our ceiling for “in press articles” in each issue from 12 to 20 and continue to expand our program to meet the demands of our readers and writers by our “supplementary issue” under process. after being indexed in pubmed and pmc in the previous year, the number of received articles increased significantly, and with early adopted policies, we are able to welcome authors as many as possible to submit their interesting manuscripts while qualified and rapid assessment is guaranteed as before. in order to improve drj online submission facilities, the new publisher, “medknow,” with its new drj submission website, journalonweb.com/drj, provided our respected users with more convenience and satisfaction. finally, i am proud to be a part of an organization that comprises the true masters, and many hours of time are spent to reach the mastery level in publishing. it will be our pleasure to receive any suggestion or concerns in this regard. with best regards,
