Editor’s Note: Journal of Surgery Research and Practice
Journal Title: Journal of Surgery Research and Practice - Year 2020, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Dear Readers and Authors, It is my pleasure to introduce you to the new and exciting Journal of Surgery Research and Practice. The journal encourages established, but mainly young authors to consider submitting their latest articles, especially surgical papers that may be considered for publication. A variety of surgical issues are covered by the journal, including General Surgery, Surgical Oncology, Vascular Surgery, Cardiac Surgery, Thoracic Surgery, Plastic Surgery, Orthopaedic surgery, Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, and other types of surgical topics. The journal has fully entered the electronic era for submission and access, and it has successfully published its first issue in the year 2020. The editorial board team consists of leading researchers, who have made significant contributions to highly acclaimed studies and papers. Together we will strive to transform the Journal of Surgery Research and Practice into one of the leading journals in the field of surgery. I am honored to take on the role of Editor-in-Chief of this developing and ground breaking journal. It is our priority as editors, to expediently reply with feedback and decisions regarding the papers submitted to us by our potential authors. This paper deals with many topics and covers a wide range of interests on the surgical spectrum. I have always enjoyed delving into journals with diverse areas that keep the average surgeon on the edge of their seat, as opposed to single-specialty journals. I hope you enjoy exploring the innovative nature of the papers that will compose our journal each couple of months as much as I will enjoy editing them. Yours Truly, Dr. Safi Khuri, M.D. Editor-in-Chief
