EDITORIAL COMMITTEE OF THE BRITISH JOURNAL OF SURGERY

The overseas membership of the Editorial Board has increased steadily over the past two decades, reflecting the international flavour of The British Journal of Surgery. In 1989, to foster closer links with continental Europe, the Council of the BJS Society appointed the first surgeon from outside Britain to join the Editorial Committee, the body with executive control over the monthly publication of the Journal. There are now three representatives from mainland Europe on the Editorial Committee, and their profiles are given below.
