56 Med. Sci. & L. 1 (2016)

handle is hein.journals/mdsclw56 and id is 1 raw text is: Medicine, Science and the Low 2016, Vol. 56(1) 1 @ The Author(s) 2015 Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.ul/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10. 1177/0025802415627119 msl.sagepub.com @VSAGE I am both very honoured and pleased to introduce myself to the readership of Medicine Science and the Law as the new Editor in Chief, in this, our first edi- tion of 2016. My first and equally pleasant task is to thank the outgoing team, in particular Professor Peter Vanezis OBE, and the Assistant Editor Adam Konstanciak for their efforts and endeavours over the years of their stewardship of the Journal. This edition naturally owes much to that legacy. This Journal is your Journal, and I welcome sug- gestions and submissions from the readership for topics and themes that you would wish to see explored in future editions. I hope to encourage greater participation by pro- fessionals in training, in all three disciplines. Sections for professional trainees and students are planned for future editions. I would particularly welcome the development of interdisciplinary commentaries, in respect of the papers we publish; and I hope that this, too, will become a regular feature. We are always seeking the valued contribution of speciality editors; and I intend to recruit several visit- ing Speciality Editors to augment the excellent work already undertaken by the existing team. 2016 will be, in many senses, a crucial year for forensic sciences in the UK. There can be no doubt that the twin effects of ongoing judicial reform and financial austerity will prove a significant challenge to the delivery of ethical, efficient and independent ser- vices to the courts and all of their users. This Journal, your Journal, will do its utmost to play its part in maintaining the highest standards of scientific enquiry and debate, within an equally ethical framework. I look forward, with great expectation, to being a part of that endeavour. Prof Bob Peckitt December 2015 Editorial Editorial
