An update on Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology: Something old, something new, something borrowed,...

In this editorial, the author provides an update on Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology in several areas. First, the journal will continue to accept original research reports and full reviews as it has in past years. The author hopes to still receive outstanding manuscripts in the journal's primary areas of strength, such as clinical research on alcohol use and cigarette smoking. The journal will also continue to publish an annual special issue on a current topic in the field. Second, the journal now accepts brief communications, brief reviews, and case reports. The authors sees these new formats as opportunities to publish cutting edge, novel findings that may not be suitable as original research reports or full reviews-such work would previously not have fit with the journal. Third, the author has borrowed an idea from colleagues who serve as editors for other journals in the field: the addition of an editorial fellowship at Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology. Finally, the "something green" part of the title refers to the new, bright green cover color of the print version of the journal. (PsycINFO Database Record
