Vol. 20 No. 2 (2015)

Dear forensic scientists,
We are very pleased to present 2nd issue of 2015 of The Bulletin of Legal Medicine. It is a great honor to achieve timely delivering 2nd issue of The Bulletin of Legal Medicine during XII. Congress of Forensic Sciences organized by The Society of Forensic Medicine Specialists.
As a natural consequence of increasing number of scientific activities and studies in the field of forensic sciences, there is an increase in the number and the quality of papers submitted to our journal. Increasing submissions from abroad besides our country certainly put forward the universal manner or our work. In this issue, we are pleased to share scientific studies from four different countries.
The Bulletin of Legal Medicine, being monitored by international scientific indexes, has gained an international journal quality, within a short time. The journal also perfected its online accession system by providing DOI (Digital Object Identifier) number, a character string that uniquely identifies a digital object, for each paper.
Along with the 2015 issues, The Bulletin of Legal Medicine continues to offer free online access based on the philosophy of free science. We are pleased to present the new layout and cover design.
We wish you to continue contributions to our journal. We also would like to remind you that you are welcomed to share your comments by submitting as letter to the editor. Hope to meet you in higher quality issues.
Sincerely,
Prof. Halis Dokgoz, MD.
