Charting the future of carbonyl research in food and medicine

Dear IMARS Members,

below you can download the message from Reiko Inagi who is the new Editor of the IMARS Highlights.

IMARS Council warmly thanks Naila Rabbani, who served for many years as Editors of the Journal and also Gerald Muench acting as guest editor in the last months.

As you know Naila is now acting as Co-editor of the glycation section of the Amino Acids Journal  that welcome full research papers from IMARS Members.

We wish to thanks Reiko for accepting this job and I would like to ask all members to support her efforts to improve the Highlights quality.

Dear All,
the “IMARS Highlights” are almost six year old, and the IMARS council has decided to restyle their mission and publication focus.

In the future, IMARS Highlights will also publish students’ contributions, including the (short or extended) abstracts of the PhD and MSc theses on the topics related to Maillard reaction and protein glycation. In addition, the Highlights will be available via Google Scholar.

The idea is to give immediate visibility of ongoing research before publishing the data in the research paper.
This publication strategy can have two main advantages:

1. Your students will have their name on a (first) publication in the newsletter of an international Society indexed on Google Scholar
2. Your research increases the immediate visibility among the Maillard community promoting collaborations.

Highlight will also improve the existing section “Highlights of the literature” to give people info about the hot articles published in the last three months. There will be different “Highlights literature” sessions on Food Science Nutrition and Medicine

Finally a session on research shop will be realized and it will include various products (e.g. analytical standard and analytical services available by the members of the society). Details of the contribution to this session will be available on the IMARS web site soon.

We would like to publish the first new issue in March so please encourage your students or junior postdocs to send their latest conference or thesis abstract thru our dedicated page: http://www.imars.org/online/?page_id=3842 by March 1^st.
