It is an honour to be selected as the
second Executive Editor of Swine Health and Production.
Under the guidance of Dr. Bob Morrison, the journal has become
a preeminent source of scientific knowledge for the swine industry.
The journal has, since its inception, maintained a rigorous review
and editorial process. It has become a journal selected by both
swine researchers and practitioners as a forum for presenting
research and case studies. Researchers tend to send their "best"
work to a journal with a reputation for thorough reviews. As executive
editor, I would like to maintain this rigour of review and see
the international reputation of the journal continue to grow.
The editorial staff of the Swine Health and Production
work hard to assist authors during the editorial process to help
them publish the best possible paper, and this process will continue
for the benefit of the authors and the readership. There has also
been a concerted effort to increase the numeracy of the readership.
I would like to further this process by discussing critical evaluation
of the literature and field trial design, implementation, and
analysis.
I encourage you to participate in the exchange of information
by submitting your research work, case studies, production tips,
and letters to our AASP journal (editorial address on the facing
page). With your input, Swine Health and Production will
continue to provide excellence in continuing education for our
members.
