Valuing the IJTMB Manuscript Review Board
نویسنده
چکیده
The honor of becoming Executive Editor of the IJTMB affords me increased appreciation for the process of research publishing. While authors work arduously to produce strong research and reporting, the Editorial Board, comprising six volunteers (http:// www.ijtmb.org/index.php/ijtmb/about/editorialTeam) and a great team of support persons, works painstakingly to ensure quality research articles live in the IJTMB. As a critical part of producing each journal issue, the Editorial Board coordinates the Journal’s network of volunteer reviewers, the Manuscript Review Board (MRB). I’d like to present and thank the IJTMB MRB reviewers* of the past three years: Antony J. Porcino, BSc, PhD (candidate)
