The fellowships are 1 month long, beginning in the fall and extending through the RSNA Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting in November. During that time, Drs Katz and Wagner will live temporarily in Richmond, Va, where they will work with the Editor of Radiology. They will also spend time in the Washington, DC, editorial office of RadioGraphics. Dr Katz and Dr Wagner will also spend 2 days with RSNA publications, advertising, and marketing communications staff. A week of the fellowship will be spent working with RSNA editors at the Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting, which will be held at Chicago's McCormick Place from November 28 to December 3. Besides learning about journalism in radiology, the fellows will contribute to the development of RSNA publications by lending their unique experiences and perspectives.

Douglas S. Katz, MD—Dr Katz attended the State University of New York at Binghamton where he obtained his bachelors degree in biological sciences in 1986. He attended the Stony Brook campus for medical school and received his medical degree in 1990. He interned at Winthrop University Hospital and completed his residency at the Health Science Center in Syracuse, NY, where he was co–chief resident. In 1993, Dr Katz became a member of the Steering Committee of the American Association of Academic Chief Residents in Radiology (A³CR²) and was a representative of the A³CR² to the American College of Radiology. Dr Katz's interest in imaging of the chest, gastrointestinal system, and genitourinary system led to a fellowship in body imaging at the Department of Radiology at the Stanford University Medical Center from July 1995 to July 1996. Dr Katz has co-authored over 70 radiology articles, almost 50 abstracts, and two textbooks. He currently serves as a reviewer for five radiology journals. He was also the recipient of "Distinction in Reviewing," Radiology, 1998, and "Special Distinction in Reviewing," Radiology, 1999.

Hans-Joachim Wagner, MD, PhD—Dr Wagner received his medical degree at the University of Frankfurt, Germany. He interned in internal medicine, surgery, and anesthesiology at the Hospital of the Holy Ghost in Frankfurt and served a series of three residencies (one in internal medicine and two in diagnostic radiology) between 1986 and 1991. Subsequently, he received a fellowship in interventional and angiographic radiology at the Municipal Hospital in Kassel, Germany. Throughout the 1990s, Dr Wagner has taught medical students the science, technology, and methodology behind computed tomography, diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology, and magnetic resonance imaging. He has also served as a reviewer for Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology; European Radiology; and Fortschritte Röntgenstrahlen (RöFo), the highest-ranking German radiologic journal.

The RSNA Board of Directors extends its congratulations to these fine radiologists and looks forward to seeing how the Editorial Fellowship benefits them, their institutions, and radiologic journalism.
