Due to increasing administrative responsibilities at his institution, Dr William Dillon informed me of his desire to step down from his position as Senior Editor after 13 years of dedicated service to the American Journal of Neuroradiology (AJNR). I thank Bill for his invaluable work and his support during my tenure as Editor-in-Chief. After 4 years of working with him, this is how I view him: dedicated, motivated, cutting-edge, honest and fair, highly knowledgeable, down to earth, and, overall, a very nice person. Isn't this what we all strive to be? Thus, finding a replacement was not easy.
Dr Nancy Fischbein from Stanford University will take over Bill's AJNR responsibilities. She did her undergraduate and MD studies at Harvard and her radiology and neuroradiology training at the University of California, San Francisco. Nancy is currently Associate Professor and Chief of Head and Neck Imaging at Stanford. Her scholarly activities include nearly 100 peer-reviewed articles, 15 book chapters, and 2 books. These achievements are enhanced by her writing and people skills. She is a highly respected member of the head and neck imaging community. The work as Senior Editor will not be easy; the number of head and neck submissions continues to increase, particularly full-length original articles. She is not alone, as our head and neck manuscript reviewers are probably the best AJNR has. Transitions are never easy, and following Bill's steps can be intimidating. I am confident that Nancy will be able to do that and more. Please help me welcome her.
