Professor Stuart Taylor joins British Journal of Radiology editorial team

Professor Stuart Taylor has become the new editor-in-chief (medical) of the British Journal of Radiology (BJR), the BIR’s flagship research journal. Professor of medical imaging at the Centre for Medical Imaging, University College London, Professor Taylor is also an National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) senior investigator and chair of the National NIHR Imaging Group. His research is focused on developing and translating imaging technologies, particularly for CT colonography, inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn’s disease and colorectal diagnosis and staging.

Professor Taylor said: “Medical publishing is rapidly evolving with new challenges but many opportunities. BJR is the oldest radiological journal in the world and I am very much looking forward to carrying on the excellent work of my predecessor Dr Simon Jackson in keeping the journal at the cutting edge of imaging science.”

Outgoing editor-in-chief (medical) Dr Jackson held the role for eight years and served on the editorial board for more than 14 years.

“Simon has been a brilliant leader of the journal and we extend our thanks and huge appreciation for his expert guidance and supportive leadership over the years,” the BIR says.

Professor Taylor will work alongside Professor Andrew Nisbet, who continues in his role as editor-in-chief (scientific).
