Avram Mack, M.D., passes a pen to Joshua Roffman, M.D., symbolizing Roffman's assumption of Mack's editorship of a longstanding series of articles by, about, and for psychiatry residents in the APA journal Psychiatric Services. The series was started in 2001 with the goals of improving psychiatric training, highlighting the academic work of psychiatry residents and fellows, and encouraging research on psychiatric services by trainees.
An important hallmark of the series is that its articles, most of which are written by psychiatry residents, are peer reviewed according to the same stringent standards as applied to all the other articles in Psychiatric Services.
Mack, who is completing his residency in the department of child and adolescent psychiatry at the New York State Psychiatric Institute, “put in an immense amount of behind-the-scenes work soliciting papers, reading the first drafts, and giving authors care and support and good suggestions for getting them into the shape they needed to be in to pass muster with peer reviewers,” said Connie Gartner, the journal's managing editor.
Roffman, who is a fourth-year psychiatry resident at Massachusetts General Hospital, became the series editor earlier this month. He is also an APA/GlaxoSmithKline fellow and was recently elected president of the fellowship.
Prospective authors should contact Roffman by mail at the Wang Ambulatory Care Center 812, Massachusetts General Hospital, 15 Parkman Street, Boston, Mass. 02114, or by e-mail at [email protected].
