INVITATION TO BECOME A REVIEWER
for the
Journal of the Dermatology Nurses' Association

The Dermatology Nurses' Association (DNA) invites qualified dermatology professionals to become involved as reviewers with the DNA's new official journal, the Journal of the Dermatology Nurses' Association, to be launched February 2009. The journal will be wholly owned by DNA, and published by the internationally renowned nursing publisher, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. >MEMBERS OF THE REVIEWER PANEL will play a critical role in ensuring the quality of content for this new journal, which is expected to publish (in print and online, in full color throughout), 6 issues each year, with 56 pages of editorial content in each issue. The journal will be positioned as the leading peer-reviewed journal of dermatology nursing, publishing original research and clinical articles, review articles, and educational features, along with professional information for all members of the Association.

Reviewers will be trained in using the web-based manuscript review system to be provided by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. The system makes it very easy to access newly submitted manuscripts when you are assigned as a reviewer. We will expect reviews to be completed in 15 working days from your accepting your assignment.

If you would like to be considered as a reviewer for the Journal of the Dermatology Nurses' Association, please email Victoria Elliott, Executive Director, at dna@dnanurse.org with the following information:

1. Nursing and/or dermatology areas of particular expertise and interest.
