The editorial office at @psychosommed.bsky.social will be closed next week through New Year’s (you didn’t want to get a review request next week anyway, right?) We come back as Biopsychosocial Science and Medicine (BSAM)! Same great journal, new great title.

Just back from Madagascar. Cuteness award to these sleeping spectacled tetrakas (one woke up briefly but quickly went back to sleep).
