چکیده

We start another year with this issue of the RBO, which now contains a greater number of studies. This was decided by the Editorial Board and the new directorate of the SBOT, in view of the ever greater number of studies sent for publication: instead of more issues, a journal with a greater number of studies. The Editorial Board has been renewed through the entry of Professors Akira Ishida, Helton Defino and Sergio Checchia, who replace Professors João Batista Volpon, Flávio Faloppa and Tarcisio Barros, three titular professors who have decisively contributed towards indexation of the RBO in SciELO. This renovation took place in accordance with the RBO’s statutes, which determine that each president of the SBOT, in conjunction with the Editorial Board, should renew one third of the Editorial Board during his mandate. The new board has also renewed the Editorial Body and the Consultants’ Body, thus bringing in new names that have contributed greatly towards the RBO, as replacements for members who had asked to leave or who were considered to merit a period of rest, away from the complicated functions of editorial review. In conformity with the resolution agreed at the meeting of the RBO’s Editorial Board, at the 41st CBOT in Rio de Janeiro, we present the first Associate Editors: Philippe Hernigou – Paris, France; Fernando Fonseca – Coimbra, Portugal; José Neves – Porto, Portugal; Jacinto Monteiro – Lisbon, Portugal. The RBO expresses its gratitude to those who are leaving for any reason and greets its new members. In this editorial, we transcribe the document that summarizes AMB’s actions in relation to CAPES, aimed at placing greater value on Brazilian scientific publishing.
