Jean Clandinin 23EditorialAs we enter the eighth year <strong>of</strong> the UAHSJ, we are excited toannounce a number <strong>of</strong> changes. Two thousand and eleven wasa transition year for the journal, with two major initiatives inthe works. Emphasizing multidisciplinary involvement is anongoing priority, and in the coming years we hope to continuethis momentum by including other health sciences facultiesand schools at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Alberta</strong>. We have reinstitutedFaculty Representatives to aid in better distributing the journaland, most importantly, solicit even more submissions fromthe talented writers and researchers in our student body. Ona similar note, we also look forward to working with otheruniversities across Canada to widen both our readership andsubmissions base.There have been a number <strong>of</strong> content changes in the works atthe UAHSJ. Beginning with this issue, we will focus on piecesgeared towards a general health sciences reader: clinical andscientific reviews, summer student abstracts, book reviews,history <strong>of</strong> medicine pieces, medical education research,personal reflections, and letters. Our hope is that this willcomplement the push for more multidisciplinary involvement.Of course, none <strong>of</strong> this would be possible without the tirelessefforts <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Journal</strong>’s contributors, our Editorial Board, andour new Junior Editor, Andrew Tang. We extend our thanksto the Faculty <strong>of</strong> Medicine and Dentistry for their generousfinancial support, and Dr. Fraser Brenneis, Vice-Dean <strong>of</strong>Education, who took the time to guide and advise us throughthe publication <strong>of</strong> this issue. Finally, we would like to warmlywelcome Dr. Tamar Rubin, a PGY-1 resident in Pediatrics, whohas assumed the role <strong>of</strong> Editor <strong>of</strong> Musa. Tamar has extensiveexperience in both literary writing and the medical humanities.Many thanks to Dr. Pamela Brett-MacLean, who originallyconceived Musa and will now carry on as its Faculty Editor.Yours,Sebastian Vrouwe and Andrew TaylorEditors in ChiefCONTENTS / EDITORIALRESEARCHEnter stage right: An actor’s adventures in patient centred careNadine L.
