O desafio dos novos editores da RBP

Abstract

This year we will have the value of our impact factor. Preliminary calculations suggest that RBP should reach a value close to 1. 4 This index makes RBP one of the three main medical journals in Brazil and inaugurates a new era.We are aware of the responsibility we have assumed and we feel privileged for being part of such productive and pulsating contemporary Brazilian psychiatry. We know that replacing the excellent editors that preceded us will not be an easy task, but we are honored to face this challenge. As always, we count on the support of ABP board to maintain a responsible, agile and efficient editorial board, which can reflect Brazilian psychiatric research and clinical practice independently. Above all, we hope to keep the collaboration with all clinicians and researchers to face the challenge of transition and to constantly elevate our journal's standard.
