Microscopy Today July Issue Table of Contents

Listers,

Microscopy Today has a new editor-in-chief, a new look and format, and a new digital edition. Appended below is the July editorial by Charles Lyman and the July Table of Contents.

MT remains a free publication in print form for MSA members and microscopists in North America. New subscriptions, address changes, or unsubscribe requests should be directed to http://www.microscopy-today.com

Ron Anderson

=======================================================

                   Editorial

Welcome to the new look of Microscopy Today, the magazine for all microscopists and microanalysts. This controlled-circulation publication is still owned by the Microscopy Society of America, but it is now published by Cambridge University Press along with the society’s peer-reviewed scientific journal, Microscopy and Microanalysis.

How was Microscopy Today published before this issue? Answer: through Ron Anderson’s editorial skill, financial acumen, and determined salesmanship. While Ron handled most editorial and production tasks single-handedly, he was ably assisted by Dale Anderson (Art Director), Phil Oshel (Technical Editor), and Renée Stratmoen (Advertising Director). Without seven successful years under their leadership, MT might not even be an MSA publication. Thanks, Ron.

What is different inside these covers? Many features remain the same: Stephen Carmichael’s column (his 109th appears in this issue), NetNotes (edited by Thomas Phillips), Dear Abbe (correspondence handled by John Shields), Microscopy 101, and eight-to-ten articles covering all areas of microscopy. New aspects include a feature article that provides an overview of a topic of interest to practicing microscopists (MSA President-Elect Dave Piston supplied the feature article for this issue), a new column entitled Microscopy Pioneers (edited by Michael Davidson), and a column about Microscopy Education (edited by Steven Barlow).

A completely new feature is the Microscopy Today digital edition. Beginning with this issue, MT will be published simultaneously as an exact-replica digital edition. You may have seen other digital magazines, but MT’s on-line presence will have a special feature. The reader will be able to adjust the page magnification continuously, overcoming an annoying difficulty with many digital magazines. Try it out at the MT website: www.microscopy-today.com. (Available simultaneous with the printed edition shortly).

Finally, I am announcing some new awards. Microscopy Today is sponsoring ten awards for the most innovative instruments or methods related to microscopy in a given year. The awards will be called the MT-10 Awards. Details about the submission process and deadlines will be given in the September issue.

Charles Lyman Editor-in-Chief
