The October 2015 issue of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery celebrates the achievements of young physicians. The issue comprises 40 articles whose first authors are under 40 years of age. These “40 under 40” submitted their articles in response to the journal’s first-ever young physicians call for papers.
“We are fortunate in our specialty to have outstanding young physicians in residency and entering practice,” Editor-in-Chief John H. Krouse, MD, PhD, MBA, said. “This young physicians issue gives the journal an opportunity to showcase their talents and highlight the excellent work that our younger colleagues are doing.”
The journal announced its call for papers in December 2014, and the response proved overwhelming.
“We were both amazed and thrilled that our call for papers generated in excess of 200 submissions from young otolaryngologists around the world,” Dr. Krouse said. “We have selected 61 exceptional papers from this pool that met or exceeded our rigorous editorial standards, and that represent the hard work of these remarkable young physicians.”
With 61 accepted young physicians articles, the journal received too much high-quality content to contain in a single issue. Twenty-one young physicians articles will appear in subsequent issues, designated in the table of contents with a special badge (left).
