Dr. Xavier Bonfill has been appointed emeritus director of the journal Annals of Medicine by the Governing Board of the Academy of Medical and Health Sciences of Catalonia and the Balearic Islands, after 27 years at the helm of the publication.

Bonfill, who also directs the Clinical Epidemiology and Public Health service at Sant Pau Hospital, has been recognized for his long career with the journal, founded in 1907. His successor will be Dr. Ferran Nonell, an internist at the Hospital de l’Esperit Sant.
Annals of Medicine has undergone various stages since its inception. Since 1998, it has focused on being a vehicle for reflection, debate, training, and dissemination rather than publishing original research articles. All issues published since 1907 are available in the journal's archive.
