Change and Development

Established within the Faculty of Medicine, Inonu University, Journal of Turgut Ozal Medical Centre is a noteworthy medical journal that has been publishing original articles and case reports for almost 20 years. As a quarterly journal published on a regular basis, our journal has come along way since it was first launched thanks to the intensive efforts of many people behind the scenes.
As is the case in all institutions, our journal has experienced a recent administrative change. About four months ago, I was appointed as the chief editor of the Journal of Turgut Ozal Medical Centre. As the new editor-in-chief, it is my privilege to inform our readers about what we have done so far since my appointment to the post and our plans for the near future. I'd like to start my address by thanking Dr. Ahmet Karadağ, who has provided invaluable contributions to our journal as the Editor-in-chief for two years, as well as Dr. Derya Doğan and Dr. Ergül Alçin, two conscientious editors of our journal, who also decided to vacate their posts as editors after the publication of our previous issue. It is due to their efforts that our journal has reached this point. Thanks to their contributions, our journal now uses an exclusive online article submission and reviewing system; this has, indeed, speeded up the submission process while also reducing the workload significantly. In addition to our new international Advisory Board, our journal is now printed in full colour printing with a new design. The previous efforts put into the journal increases our responsibilities while they also motivate us. In this regard, we believe that we should continue following the established goals.
