Turkish Journal of Geriatrics 2013 , Vol 16 , Issue 1
FROM THE EDITOR IN CHIEF
Yeşim GÖKÇE KUTSAL

Introduction

Our journal began to be published in 1998 to its life as a journal covering all fields of geriatrics and progressively became a presentation medium for good quality research papers.

Our goal was to become one of the prestigious journals in the field and this was a continuous process, starting from the journal's first establishment, since the journal is a living organism; all necessary changes and developments were done as required and/or need.

Today as the editor-in-chief, I am honored to be able to announce that the Turkish Journal of Geriatrics is being indexed in: Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Science Citation Index, Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition, Journal Citation Reports/Social Sciences Edition, Index Copernicus Master List, EMBASE, SCOPUS, ELSEVIER, EBSCO and “Turkish Medical Index” of Turkish Academic Network and Information Center in The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBITAK-ULAKB‹M), Turk Medline and Turkey Citation Index.

I would like to thank and extend my sincerest gratitude once again to the members of the Editorial Board for their hard work with dedication and great enthusiasm and the members of the International and National Advisory Board and last but not the least, to the writers.

Dr. Yeşim GÖKÇE KUTSAL
