| description | European Thyroid Journal (ETJ) is the official journal of the European Thyroid Association (ETA) and has now been continuously published since 2012. The journal was the brainchild of Profs. Peter Laurberg and Wilmar Wiersinga, the later putting ETJ on a strong foundation as editor-in-chief until 2019. I was delighted to take on the editor-in-chief role in 2019, and with a 2022 impact factor of 4.7, it is now established in the second quartile of the Endocrinology and Metabolism category and as the top open-access journal completely dedicated to thyroid research. Changing our publisher to BioScientifica in 2021 along with embracing the fully open-access model with online publication has meant that the journal content is now fully and universally accessible to readers from any community. Furthermore, we can accept an unlimited number of papers each year, based purely on scientific quality, relevance and interest. I am delighted with the rise in manuscript submissions to ETJ and with the steady upward progress of the impact factor over the last 4 years. This reflects the faith of ETA members and numerous thyroid researchers from around the globe in sending their work to the journal, as well as the dedication and expertise of the editorial board and associate editors. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the reviewers and members of the editorial board who have contributed to the journal over my time in the role of editor-in-chief. I am equally delighted to pass on the journal in what I believe is excellent health to Luca Persani as new editor-in-chief, who I know will do an excellent job in ETJ’s next phase of development. |
