Dear Readers, Authors and Reviewers,
Greetings.

COVID-19 pandemic has shattered our routine and we seem to have a hard time ahead. I hope we shall overcome this obstacle and this shall also pass by. The publisher for Journal of Forensic Dental Sciences is changed from M/s Wolters Kluwer to Informatics Publishing limited. The Journal website is completely revamped and made user friendly. As a go green policy the journal is heading towards online only format and print on demand. However the institutional subscribers will get the print copy. The editorial board is expanded with reputed national and international editorial members and advisors to improve the quality of the journal further. The article processing /publication charge is completely waived at present. I welcome the readers to send their feed back in the form of letter to the editor or a commentary regarding the content of the journal and request the reviewers to cooperate for the speedy article processing. I also welcome the researchers working in the field of forensic dental sciences to submit their work to our journal. We are also planning to honour the best article and best photograph published in our journal.

Thanking you,
Dr B Sivapathasundharam B
Editor in Chief, JFDS
