Respected members of the Indian Society of Anaesthesiologists (ISA), Warm Greetings! It is a happy moment for me as I write this message on the occasion of the restarting of the zonal supplements of the Indian Journal of Anaesthesia. The Northern Zone of the ISA has always been in the forefront of activities of the ISA, and academics is no exception. Northern India boasts of premier and prestigious academic institutions which are known for their academic excellence in our fraternity. The research output that is being delivered from these areas needs to be shared with the global academic community, and for this, it has to appear on the pages of a journal. The supplements will provide space for sharing this research. However, in this endeavour, one should not forget the basics of research and scientific writing. Research conducted by the author should be perfect regarding every aspect, starting from inception of the research question to submission of the manuscript to the journal. This includes a novel research question, a robust study design, sincere data collection, accurate statistics, and appropriate conclusions. Such a study, when complemented by good scientific writing and following of the journal author instructions and research ethics, can never be rejected and will always find a place on the pages of a prestigious journal. I congratulate the Editor In-charge of the Northern Supplement and the entire editorial team of the Northern Supplement for coming out with this issue, which has quality articles authored by anaesthesiologists from almost all the northern states of our nation. Long Live ISA! Warm regards Dr. Madhuri S Kurdi Editor-in-Chief Indian Journal of Anaesthesia
