At the start of Volume 13 David Bowen will be stepping down as Editor-in-Chief, but we are very pleased that he has agreed to maintain his connection with the joumai as Founding Editor. We are delighted to have as his successor Jim Rose whose links with QSR also go back to the beginning, first as a member of the Editorial Advisory Board and then as Associate Editor. We wish David and Jim good luck in their new roles and look forward to many productive years.
