A UNC professor is the founding editor of a new science journal titled the Journal of Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders.
Jonathan Abramowitz, professor and associate chairman of the psychology department, said the journal will address issues including obsessive-compulsive disorder in the elderly and the very young,
ethnic and cultural influences on the disorder, and its prevention.
The journal will run quarterly and will be published by Elsevier, which provides scientific, technical and medical information products and services.
The company is a global publisher of science- and health-related journals including The Lancet and Cell, along with books.
Abramowitz is also director of the UNC Anxiety and Stress Disorders Clinic.
