Editorial: The job of an editor—one year on
Dennis Ougrin
Abstract
Incredible as it still sounds to me, it has now been a year since I took over as the editor‐in‐chief of Child and Adolescent Mental Health. It is time to both look back and look forward. Over the past year, my approach remained unchanged: CAMH should grow to become a leading source of the most clinically relevant knowledge worldwide in our field. I would like you, our readers, to think of CAMH whenever you need clinical advice, a research update, or an innovative service development idea.
We hope that you enjoy the full editorial of this issue, which is free on the Online Wiley Library.
