The Journal receives an increasing number of manuscripts of the highest scientific quality that undergo peer-review. Referees are chosen based on the suggestions of the authors, the experience of the Editor-in-chiefs, and the track record of the referee, which is accessible in the database of Manuscript Central. The database provides information on how many manuscripts a referee has had for review, the time course of the process, and the quality of the review based on the Editor-in-chiefs' assessment. Based on past experience and the topics of the manuscripts submitted in 2010 and 2011, we have invited new members of the Editorial Board, now active since 1 April 2011. The new members are Robert Andres, Ferenc Bari, Turgay Dalkara, Rick Dijkhuizen, Karl Kasischke, Andrew Maas, R Loch Macdonald, Malcolm Macleod, Kazuto Masamoto, Andreas Meisel, Kâmil Uludag, Tadeusz Wieloch, and Berislav Zlokovic.Read More
