Welcome to The Residents and Fellows Corner
Dear Friends, Colleagues and Trainees, The Great William Osler once said: “The best preparation for tomorrow is to do today's work superbly well”. As the Journal of Electrocardiology enters a new era of growth, it does so with a strong investment in its leaders of tomorrow—the trainees of today. It is my great privilege to have accepted the position of Section Editor for the new “Residents and Fellows Corner” in the journal. This section presents an opportunity for investigators-in-training. Published manuscripts are considered academic currency and this holds especially true for trainees. Academic papers highlight work and accomplishments to future supervisors, collaborators and interested international audience. They are also important proof of accomplishment that will help secure research grants and future academic appointments. In addition to publishing trainee-led original research, The Residents and Fellows Corner will allow for publication of “pilot” data and reviews that set the stage for a trainee's

proposed line of work. Any researcher in a training program is welcome to submit, including those in clinical and non-clinical disciplines. The first author must be a trainee and the cover letter should detail their role in the project. To ensure that The Residents and Fellows Corner will continue to evolve to meet trainees' needs, it will be run by a group of junior editors working in concert with the Editor-in-Chief. On behalf of the trainees, I would like to thank the journal for this great opportunity and pledge to enrich the content of the journal with new creative ideas. On behalf of the journal, I would like to welcome all the trainees and we look forward to your contributions and continuing to build on the legacy of this great journal. William F.
