The Psychiatrist focuses on psychiatric service provision by dealing with clinical issues that affect everyday practice, written in an accessible style for practising psychiatrists of all levels. Prominence is given to training in psychiatry (with more papers by trainees) and informed comment and debate on topical issues in current psychiatric practice. A selection of new Editorial Board members from overseas and an increase in submissions from outside Britain ensure that The Psychiatrist has a greater global perspective and can influence psychiatric practice internationally. The newly increased length of each issue allows room for more substantial original research papers.
