As STEM CELLS begins its 23rd year, we would like to take this time to thank our volunteer primary reviewers and Editorial Board members for their dedication and expertise in reviewing over 300 manuscripts in 2004 and our authors for helping advance the fast-paced field of stem cell research.

STEM CELLS has started a new category of articles that will be a series of Experimental Protocols for Embryonic Stem Cells Research. This is meant to help speed effective research use of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Articles in this series will include narrative details not found in protocol "handbooks," and they will update, discuss, synthesize, and hopefully help "demystify" relevant stem cell methodological information already published in books or review articles. We encourage you, our readers, to submit such "concise methods review articles" for this new series; please mention in your cover letter that your manuscript is targeted for this new section. We anticipate that topics might include the following, but we are open to your additional thoughts; the goal is to help make your high-level technological expertise more accessible to the stem cell research community:6 X! f# {, z( L" I0 `& ?5 k' N
