Associate Editera Gear Up to Facilitate Monthly Publication of Journal of Materials Research Werner Lutze and Shigeyuki Sômiya, newly appointed Associate Editors of Journal of Materials Research (JMR), report that their editorial offices are now accepting manuscripts for considération. "I am pleased with the enthusiasm that both Dr. Lutze and Prof. Sômiya hâve demonstrated in establishing a network of top-notch Principal Editors to assist them," said Editor-in-Chief Walter L. Brown. "Their commitment to helping JMR expand its communications links within the international materials community will further enhance JMR's coverage of important research in the coming months." During the past five years, JMR has expanded rapidly in topical coverage, international exposure, and the number of published articles. The change to monthly publication of JMR in 1990 is a further reflection of this growth. To better accommodate JMR's expanding base of authors and provide rapid manuscript review, two new international Associate Editors, Dr. Werner Lutze in West Germany and Prof. Shigeyuki Sômiya in Japan, were recently appointed by Walter Brown and 1989 MRS Président Bob Chang. Dr. Lutze, a JMR Principal Editor since 1986, joined Kernforschungszentrum Karlsruhe in January 1990 as head of a materials research group. He will also lecture at the Universitat Karlsruhe. Lutze received his PhD in chemistry from the Technische Universitat Berlin. His research interests include properties and structure of inorganic ion exchangers, glass and
glass ceramics, fusion reactor blanket materials, and radioactive waste management. He was organizer of both the fifth and twelfth symposia in the MRS séries on the Scientific Basis for Nuclear Waste Management. Prof. Sômiya, previously a JMR Principal Editor, is professor emeritus at the Tokyo Institute or Technology and professor at the Teikyo University of the Nishi Tokyo University. His research interests focus on advanced ceramics. Sômiya recently served as meeting chair for the MRS International Meeting on Advanced Materials held in Tokyo in 1988 and was involved in developing the newly formed MRS International Materials Research Committee. He also helped to establish the new Advanced Materials Science and Engineering Society in Japan, for which he is currently président. In addition to Editor-in-Chief Walter L. Brown, Dr. Lutze and Prof. Sômiya are responsible for the solicitation, acquisition, and review of JMR manuscripts. Through the efforts of thèse internationally based Associate Editors, manuscript acquisition and review, especially in Europe and the Far East, will be facilitated and accelerated. Authors now hâve the option of submitting manuscripts directly to Walter Brown through the JMR Editorial Office at MRS Headquarters in Pittsburgh or to Dr. Lutze or Prof. Sômiya. However, it is anticipated that authors primarily in Europe and the Far East will find it convenient to send their manuscripts directly to the Associate Editor in their région.
