INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ADDICTION JOURNAL
EDITORS
ANNUAL MEETING, 27-29 SEPTEMBER 2007
CASTLE ECKBERG, DRESDEN, GERMANY
Programme
can be downloaded here.
The 2007 conference, was hosted in Dresden by
Gerhard Bühringer, ISAJE President and editor-in-chief
of Sucht. It is ten years since the inaugural meeting in Connecticut
and much has been achieved by ISAJE in that time. Our conferences
are ideal opportunities for networking and past attendees
value them highly. New people are most welcome to join us
and you will find a friendly and collegiate spirit where much
valuable work can be accomplished.
Academic programme
This year's theme was "Quality Assurance
in Addiction Publishing." The programme was designed
to interest both current members and new ones. An outline
is enclosed. Topics embraced publishing ethics (including
possible ethical guidelines for publishers); issues of terminology;
strategies for national journals seeking entry into the big
bibliographic databases; proposal for a mentoring scheme for
new editors, and launch of ISAJE's self-guided online tutorial
for authors. As usual we will hear presentations from editors
about their journals. Members were most welcome to suggest
themes of current interest in the journal publishing arena.
A full report and discussion on ISAJE's range of activities
was presented at the annual general meeting.
With warm good wishes
Gerhard Bühringer (ISAJE President)
Susan Savva (ISAJE Executive Officer)
