1. We are pleased to announce the completion of our recruitment process for a new editorial assistant. We would like to welcome Yesari Tolga Eden to our team. Tolga will be joining our founding editorial assistant, Cindy Robinson. We are confident that Tolga will play a vital role in helping us manage our ever-growing number of submissions.
2. Review policy change, in order to smooth the resubmission process (as of May
2024):

final list of mandatory comments and if authors succeed in addressing these comments the paper is accepted.

The publication volume is constantly growing, as can be seen in the following graph, presenting the number of published pages per year.
