We held a search for the new editor for our flagship Journal, the CJNS, and we are extremely pleased to announce that Dr. Tejas Sankar will be the new Editor-in-Chief, taking over from Dr. Robert Chen, by the New Year. Congratulations Tejas.   

Dr. Sankar is a functional neurosurgeon at the University of Alberta with a strong academic lab, and a passion for the evolution of the Journal. He will be the first neurosurgeon editor of the Journal in CJNS history!  

Our thanks and appreciation to Dr. Robert Chen for his decade-long tenure as head of the Journal, which has been an overwhelming success. 

The CJNS is in excellent health with rising performance both in terms of impact, submissions and bibliometrics (impact factor). 

We look forward to the continued success of the CJNS under Dr. Sankar’s new leadership. 

Dr. Michael Hill, CNSF President
