Vol. 23 No. 2 (2018)

Dear Forensic Scientists,

We are here with the new issue of the Bulletin of Legal Medicine in 2018. Apart from being scanned by international indexes such as DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals); the Bulletin of Legal Medicine is currently the only forensic science journal among other fields in the country indexed within the scope of Tübitak Ulakbim TR Index once afterthe Council of Universities issued a condition according to the Application Requirements for Associate Professors of having an article published in a nationally reviewed journal indexed by ULAKBIM. As the Editorial Board of the Bulletin of Legal Medicine, we would like to express our gratitude to our valuable authors and reviewers for their contributions.

We are happy to share with you the studies from different disciplines within the scope of the forensic science in this new issue of our journal. We are working to direct our goals to higher levels by maintaining the feature of our journal to be a scientific platform for the forensic sciences field. We would like to ask you to check carefully the journal writing rules while sending your articles to our journal.

We wish to raise the eligibility of our journal higher by being aware of the fact that being scientific is the only way to build up a future for forensic sciences, and we wish to continue to be a common platform sharing the latest studies in Forensic Medicine and Forensic Science areas...

Prof. Dr. Halis Dokgöz
