New Editor-in-Chief Announcement
An announcement from Elsevier: new Editor-in-Chief for the International Journal of Nursing Studies. Elsevier is pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Ian Norman of King’s College, University of London as Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Nursing Studies from January 2005.
Published for over 40 years, the International Journal of Nursing Studies is a leading international scholarly nursing journal with a focus on original research papers drawn from researchers from Europe and the rest of the world. Professor Norman will build on the excellent position that the journal holds in its field and will further develop the scholarship and internationality of the journal so well established by the retiring Editor-in-Chief, Professor Dame Jenifer Wilson-Barnett, who will move to the post of Honorary International Editor. Professor Norman is a qualified mental health, general and learning disability nurse and social worker. He holds a first degree in the social sciences from the University of Keele, a Master’s degree in nurse education from the University of Edinburgh and a PhD from London University. His clinical experience is primarily in mental health nursing, and he has also worked as a probation officer in London in field and residential settings. He was appointed to the first Chair of Nursing and Inter-disciplinary Care at King’s College London in 1997 and is currently Head of the Mental Health Section and Head of Graduate Research Studies in the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery.
Professor Norman has wide editing experience, he has been an Assistant Editor of the International Journal of Nursing Studies since 2001 and is one of the founding editors of the Journal of Psychiatric & Mental Health Nursing, and is a member of the editorial board of several journals. He has published over 70 papers in professional and academic journals, and has written and edited several books. Professor Norman was made a Fellow of the European Academy of Nursing Science in 2003. Professor Norman’s research programme is concerned primarily with the study of educational and workforce related initiatives for improving the delivery of health care, and the outcome of these initiatives for staff, patients and services. He has a particular research interest in interprofessional education and working amongst health and social care professionals, and the education and work of mental health nurses. His recent research includes an evaluation of family interventions for people suffering from schizophrenia, with colleagues in Hong Kong (published recently in the International Journal of Nursing Studies) and a trial of a computerised cognitive-behavioural therapy package as a teaching intervention for nursing students.
