As we begin another year and another JAPA volume, we must bid farewell to the following Editorial Board members who are now rotating off the board: Leon Balter, Heather Berlin, Morris Eagle, Michael Garfinkle, Sybil Houlding, Claudia Lament, Judith Yanof, and Lynne Zeavin. We are fortunate to have Morris Eagle remain with JAPA in a different capacity, adding his broad expertise to our Advisory Board. Also leaving the board at this time are JAPA Editorial Associates Eileen Becker-Dunn, Israel Katz, and Gavin Mullen.
Our board members' commitment to the highest standards of the peer-review process sustains JAPA's place as a valued source of psychoanalytic scholarship. We are grateful for their efforts, as are our submitting authors, who regularly acknowledge to us the benefits of our board's constructive input to their work.
We wish to welcome the following new Editorial Board members for the term running from January 1, 2018, through December 31, 2020: Daria Colombo, Henry J. Friedman, Axel Hoffer, Kay Long, Kerry Kelly Novick, Eslee Samberg, Michael Shulman, and Alan Sugarman. We also look forward to working over the next two years with three new Editorial Associates: Leslie Keith, Michael Levin, and Gregory Rizzolo.
Sadly, our longtime Managing Editor, Marilyn Herleth, was forced to leave us due to illness. We will miss her no-nonsense approach and wry sense of humor, familiar to generations of JAPA board members and authors. We are fortunate to have found Jennifer Mahar, our new Managing Editor, who brings to JAPA a wealth of experience in journal publishing.
