Introduction
We are delighted to welcome you to the new online journal, Dynamic Medicine. This journal is available on the World Wide Web, http://www.dynamic-med.com/ as well as through PubMed Central, http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/, the National Institute of Health's repository for biomedical research articles, and from the BioMed Central website http://www.biomedcentral.com. Readers have free access to articles in Dynamic Medicine, at anytime and from anywhere, without restrictions. Articles are available in full text and journal/PDF form, and can be freely downloaded and printed out. If a higher quality printed version of an article is preferred there is also the option to purchase reprints.
We aim to complete the peer review process for research articles within one month of receipt and to publish the final version of papers within one month of acceptance. With electronic submission, this means that your research article can reach the scientific community two months after you submit. We believe that this speedy-publishing policy saves your time and facilitates your research processes such as grant proposals . Our Editorial Board members will play a decisive role in selecting authors for extensive, up-to-date reviews and selecting appropriate referees for each research article. To achieve fair, fast refereeing and publication, decisions on which articles to publish in Dynamic Medicine will be in the combined hands of an Editor-in-Chief and a member of the Editorial Board. No articles will be rejected without the advice of either a working scientist in the relevant field, the Editor-in-Chief or one of the scientists of the Editorial Board. Moreover, when a paper is refereed, at least one reviewer could be chosen from a list of referees provided by the authors.
