I was lucky enough to be part of this journey from its creation, first as editor for a year, then succeeding Hassan as Editor in Chief since January 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My time at the YRE has been quite an\nadventure. During this period, we published seven editorials. Doing so, we\ninteracted and exchanged with young, motivated authors from various continents\nand areas of expertise. I developed new skills, both social and technical, and became\nfamiliar with the world of editing, which was new to me. I also learned that it\nis far more difficult to reject a manuscript than to publish it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the process of editing can sometimes\nbe long and challenging, I experienced great pleasure in reading my peers\u2019\nmanuscripts. It allowed me to look at public health topics from all sorts of new\nangles, different from my own research. I realized that I am part of a large community\nof young, dedicated scientists, who are full of innovative ideas but do not\nalways have the opportunity to share their experience and to make their opinions\nheard. I strongly believe that the YRE actively contributes to Public Health\nresearch by offering a platform where we can exchange on a scientifically rigorous,\nyet safe environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these sentiments, I have come to the\nend of my own adventure with YRE and it is my great pleasure to introduce\nVasileios Nittas, our new Editor in Chief since February. He joined our\neditorial board several months ago and impressed us with his energy and\ndedication to the YRE. I wish him the best luck for this new chapter of the\nYRE. I also address a special thank you to all editors, who contributed with\ntheir great work and expertise to shape the YRE as it is today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If want to learn how to be an editor as\nwell, you may register for <a href=\"https:\/\/pphs.unibas.ch\/curriculum-2\/editors-workshop\/\">this course<\/a> or\ncontact us directly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">This post is written by Apolline Saucy.
