A message of science, peace and gratitude

As we approach Christmas and the New Year 2026 - which will be the fifth for our journal - we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our Section Editors, to every eminent Colleague of the Editorial Board, to the Authors, reviewers, readers of the Bleeding, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology (BTVB), and to all members of SISET and AICE. The contributions of you all define how we are progressing and continue to grow. The recent recognition of BTVB by both Web of Science/Clarivate and Scopus is a great success shared with our Publisher – PAGEPress Publications. To our Readers: thank you for placing your attention in us and for the time you spend with our journal. Your expectations push us to maintain and improve excellence. To our Section Editors and Reviewers: thank you for the dedication you bring to each submission. Your thoughtful evaluations, high standards, and fairness strengthen the scientific process and support the Authors working to advance knowledge. Your impact is clearly present in every issue. To our Authors: thank you for selecting BTVB as the scientific forum for your research. We appreciate the effort behind each manuscript, your openness to revising and refining your work, and your commitment to driving progress in the field. We are deeply thankful for your help to nurture a young community built on excellence, respect, curiosity, openness, fantasy and innovation. Wishing you a healthy and joyful Christmas - that would hopefully coincide with the expected time of peace in the world - and our best wishes for a fantastic New Year, we sincerely thank everything you will do to support BTVB and the science that moves our field forward. The love that moves the sun and all the stars.
