New year, new editorial team

چکیده
T he New Year brings a change of editorship; after seven years of exceptional custodianship the journal says goodbye to Professor Chris Kennard. During his tenure he has maintained the key role of the journal as a premier European clinical neuroscience publication and witnessed an increase in submissions from about 1200 to over 2000 per annum. He has established online submissions via Bench.Press and established the website. He has overseen the introduction of Neurology in Practice, edited by Ian Bone and Geraint Fuller, which will continue in this series until 2005. A number of new features have been introduced, such as editorial commentaries. All of these provide added value to the quality of the submitted articles. It is this added value which is of such importance during the time of the information explosion and online publishing opportunities. These opportunities are indeed substantial, both to increase the amount of information available but also to distribute journals to a wider audience at ever lower marginal cost. The danger, however, is that as quantity increases quality falls. Chris Kennard has met these challenges and hands over the journal in excellent shape.
