A free service for scientific peer review and publishing

much ado about noting

Anonymity rules change

Peerage of Science
09 Feb 2016

Peerage of Science has maintained triple-blind peer reviewer anonymity default from the very beginning. This meant that in standard processes designated by author to be Anonymous, peer reviewer identity was not shown to anyone, not even editors, unless reviewer explicitly decided to disclose name.

It has become clear that this principle was a serious obstacle for wider adoption of Peerage of Science among editors. Especially because Peerage of Science is still quite new to most editors, the leap of faith to trust fully anonymous peer reviewers was too much for most. The fact is, while we know that our reviewers are qualified, the editors did not.

Peerage of Science now defaults to double-blind reviewer anonymity

Starting today, all new Anonymous reviewing engagements begin with the agreement shown on the image on the right. The important change is this paragraph:

"You agree that registered editors listed below can check your name and email address. Correspondingly, you will receive email notification with editor's name and email address if one of them checks your identity. Editor who is an author or reviewer in this process can not see your identity. Editors registering after your engagement have to ask your permission to see your identity."

For all reviewing engagements initiated before this change, and in cases where an editor registered after the reviewing engagement happened, the old rules still apply: if an editor wants to know your identity in an older Anonymous process, they must ask whether you would like to kindly disclose it, just for that process, and just for that editor. To help Peerage of Science grow, we recommend you agree to disclose.

In all cases, as a peer reviewer in Peerage of Science, you still know who can see your name and email address, before they get a chance to see them. And you always have the chance to opt out: in old engagements by declining the request, and in the new policy by not engaging that process in the first place. If you really feel you must review an article with full triple-blind anonymity, you just have to wait until it is published and then comment it afterwards in other sites such as PubPeer.

Janne-Tuomas Seppänen, the founder of Peerage of Science comments the change:

I see that this change is inevitable, yet I must admit it is made with a heavy heart. The original idea was that each argument must stand on its own merit, not on the prestige of peer's name, or lack of it. It was a sincere idea, just not a very successful one. But I am happy that the bigger, more important innovations Peerage of Science brings to peer review can now grow better. Open Engagement, Peer-review-of-peer-review, and Concurrent Consideration are much more important issues than anonymity. I am also happy that participating editors can now see that Peers really are the same trustworthy scientists they would solicit in the traditional system. Eager post-docs, eloquent professors, luminary members of National Science Academies. And if an editor wants to use triple-blind they can still do so - simply by avoiding to click the Identity button next to the peer review.

The policy change of course does not impact the processes designated by author to be Onymous, since in them all names are disclosed to all participants anyway.

Periscope About
Just over a year ago, we became fascinated by the idea of discovering the world through someone else’s eyes. What if you could see through the eyes of a protester in Ukraine? Or watch the sunrise from a hot air balloon in Cappadocia? It may sound crazy, but we wanted to build the closest thing to teleportation. While there are many ways to discover events and places, we realized there is no better way to experience a place right now than through live video. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but live video can take you someplace and show you around.
Yup, Periscope is still a thing: Twitters live video streaming service just announced some new discovery features to make its web portal to the world more useful. Taking a page out of the aging but still successful broadcast TV playbook, Periscope is offering up sets of "curated channels." Some are hashtag-driven, like #Music, #Food, #Art and #Travel -- those will be updated whenever some goes live on Periscope. Another set of channels will focus on current, planned events, like the presidential debates, and the last category of channels will be created as breaking news warrants. Thats for things like the recent protests in Charlotte, NC. Digging into the latter groups of channels will surface both live broadcasts as well as completed videos that you can replay. Scrolling over a video will start a preview that you can watch, and clicking it will launch the full recording. This is all well and good, but Periscope remains a mobile-first app, so most people are probably still going to interact with the service on their phones. But if youre the kind of person who wants to kick back and see what kind of crazy stuff people are chatting about at any given moment, Periscopes redesigned website is as good a choice as any.Perisearch,Periscope Profile

3 Expert Tips For a Healthy Scalp

3 Expert Tips For a Healthy Scalp

Say goodbye to dandruff and hello to a healthy scalp and hair with these great tips.

Scalp problems are associated with a range of different symptoms — the most common symptoms being dryness, tightness and itchiness. If you’re bothered by dandruff, you’re not alone. According to Dr. Marta Rendon, celebrity dermatologist for Head & Shoulders, more than 50 percent of people suffer from dandruff at least once in their life, making it the most common of all scalp problems.

Fortunately, Rendon says, there’s a lot you can do to get a healthy scalp and soft, shiny hair again.

1. Shampoo Hair for a Healthy Scalp
Maintaining a healthy scalp starts in the shower.

“Shampooing is the easiest and most effective way to clean your scalp and keep it healthy,” Rendon says. “The shampooing action invigorates follicles, reduces the excessive sebum buildup that can lead to dandruff and oiliness, and prevents excess skin from accumulating on the scalp.”

For best results, look for a shampoo with zinc pyrithione. Zinc pyrithione reduces the amount of fungus on the scalp, which is a leading cause of dandruff. Other contributors include scalp oils, diet, stress and your individual susceptibility to skin irritation.

2. Massage for a Healthy Scalp
Did you know that massaging your scalp can help relieve problems such as dandruff?

First, wash your hair with dandruff-fighting shampoo, which rejuvenates your hair and scalp. Massage the shampoo into your scalp for a minute or two to help loosen dead skin cells and increase circulation to the scalp. Rinse, and then follow with a specially formulated conditioner to maintain protection for your hair and scalp.

3. Make Small Changes to Your Everyday
Besides using the right products, eating well and getting regular exercise are two things that can help you maintain a healthy scalp.

Become a member of P&G everyday and get exclusive offers!

“Bad nutrition — including crash diets — has been shown to have a negative impact on hair quality and may even cause hair loss,” Rendon says.

Consume a balanced diet that includes zinc, B vitamins, essential fatty acids, biotin, protein and iron to help promote lustrous locks and a healthy scalp.

Watch the hair styling products you use, too!

“Minimize the amount of styling products you use and the frequency with which you use them, as many of them can contribute to the buildup of oils on your scalp,” Rendon says.

The remaining places in tomorrow’s quarterfinals of the 2012 Samdech Hun Sen Cup were filled yesterday by Metfone C-League sides as expected. However, as National Police Commissary, Preah Khan Reach and Build Bright United sealed their advances with comprehensive routs over provincial opponents, Metfone C-League champions Phnom Penh Crown lab-oured to a 1-0 victory over newly promoted Boeung Kat Rubber Field.

The Kampong Cham team stood up admirably to the Phnom Penh heavyweights and gave fans a clear indication that they are ready to take on all-comers in the upcoming league season, which begins in April.

Led by the enigmatic Be Makara, who had captured both the Hun Sen Cup and the league title twice as manager of Crown, they managed to contain Crown captain fantastic and frontman Kouch Sokumpheak for the entire first half by double-teaming him with Touch Panhcharong and Khieu Vibol.

At half-time, Crown coach David Booth of England made the inspired tactical move to push Sokumpheak back into midfield, and it paid rich rewards in the 67th minute as the national team star skipped past Panhcharong to smash an unstoppable drive past Boeung Kat keeper Soeun Pisal in what proved to be the winning goal.

Boeung Kat’s Keo Sokngorn, who netted a dazzling dozen on Saturday against Kratie, was giving everything he could to unlock the defence of his former team, but former team-mate and defender Tieng Tiny was wise to his ploys and thwarted his efforts.

In the closing stages, Crown threw all their men behind the ball to hold onto their slender lead.

The door was left wide open for National Police to grab top spot in Group D in the later kickoff, and they seized the opportunity in emphatic fashion with a 22-0 obliteration of hapless Kratie.

The travelling side were sent home with a woeful record of 55 goals conceded in three games, with a solitary, but presumably memorable, consolation goal from their city campaign.

Over at Olympic Stadium, Cup holders Preah Khan Reach clinched first place in Group C with a 13-1 stuffing of Stung Treng. Hotshot striker Khoun Laboravy notched up 11 goals, exactly half the total that won him the tournament’s Golden Boot award last year.

In the evening game, last year’s runners-up Build Bright United cut down Koh Kong 8-2 to claim runners-up from the group.

They now face National Police in tomorrow’s quarterfinals, while Crown and PKR will face off in the pick of the last-eight fixtures.

Electron Precession versus Proton Precession in a Magnetometer?

  1. May 14, 2008 #1

    Why is it that electron precession is not used in addition to proton precession in a proton precession magnetometer? It seems to me that when the frequencies are emitted as the protons precess that the electrons would do precessing at the same time and provide a secondary frequency to observe. Observing a second frequency would provide a better signal to noise for processing and perhaps may decay faster or slower providing a signal that is better at different times or different situations. I imagine there is a fundamental reason why this is not done but I can't find anything on the web that talks to this.

Power series expansion of an exponential

    Thanks for the quick replies.
    Using "x" = x+x²/2

    I get y=2{1 + x + x²/2 + (x+x²/2)²/2 +.....}-1
    this leads to..

    I think I may have made a mistake but I cannot see where. My reason being I am supposed to show that a previously worked solution of y=2x+x²+c and the original equation y=2[e^{x+(x²/2)}-1] agree up to the first power of x only.

    firstly, in the previously worked solution i am missing a coefficient of 2 for x². Secondly, why would the question ask to show that the original solution only agrees with the power series expansion of the same equation only to the power of x? It makes no sense!

Total internal reflection questions

  1. Feb 17, 2006 #1

    so i'm doing this question on total internal reflection and have got myself totally lost

    here is the question:

    what is the smallest angle [tex]\theta[/tex](1) for which a laser beam will undergo TIR on the hypotenus of this glass prism?

    after reflecting off the hypotenuse at [tex]\theta[/tex](c) the laser exits the prism through the bottom face. does it exit to the right or left of the normal? at what angle?

    http://photos-603.facebook.com/n11/161/86/37900227/n37900227_30061603_2132.jpg [Broken]

    that is a picture of what is going on here

    Now, i realize that at some point im going to be using snells law as well as the equation for critical angle. My question is.. what do I do?

    I am totally lost as you can probably see, and any help would be much appreciated
    thank you

    i've used the critical angle equation and found that the critical angle is 41.81 degrees (using n1 = 1.5 for glass, n2 = 1.0 for air) and didn't know what to do with it... i ended up subtracting the triangle angle of 30 degrees and setting 1.5*sin11.81 = 1*sin theta and solved for theta. i got the right answer, but am not sure how the 30 degrees is subtracted. i know it involves similar triangles but am just not seeing it i guess.

    same for the second part, i just subtracted 60-41.81 and then setup the same equation to find my angle coming out, which again i got correct, but am stumped as to how that works.

    Good job solving the middle part first, that's how I would approach it as well. Now just draw the two 41.8 degree beams coming off the hypotenuse side (one toward the left face and one toward the bottom face). Then label the angles where the beams exit out the two sides. That should help you keep the Snell's law beam angle changes straight at the two sides.

    Here's a helpful hint. Redraw the triangle such that the two angles are very different (like 20 degrees and 70 degrees). Then draw your ray tracing going backward, and the angles you need will be much more obvious as you look at them (you will see whether to subtract 60 or 30 degrees because you will see one angle much larger than the other).

Tower of Hanoi, 4 pegs! i'm not sure what they are asking!

  1. Nov 17, 2006 #1
    Hello everyone.

    I'm trying to figure this out, The problem says:
    Suppose that the Tower of Hanoi problem has four poles in a row instead of three. Disk an be transfeered one by one from one pole to any other pole, but at no time may a larger disk be placed on top of a smaller disk. Let [tex]S_n[/tex] be the minimum number of moves needed to transfer the entire tower of n disks from the left-most to the right most pole.

    c. Show that [tex]s_k <= 2*s_{k-2} + 3 [/tex]for all integers k >= 3.

    Okay so i drew it out and I figured out the process:
    if i have 4 poles, A, B, C, and D but I found an image on the web that will describe it better:

    Then this is the process:
    http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/908/untitledwc0.jpg [Broken]

    Move n-2 disk from pole A to pole B,
    then move top disk to pole C
    then move top disk to pole D
    Then move disk from C to D

    The book says for a and b:

    [tex]s_{1}[/tex] = 1
    [tex]s_{2} [/tex]= 1 + 1 + 1 = 3
    [tex]s_3 = s_1[/tex] + (1 + 1 + 1) + [tex]s_1[/tex] = 5
    [tex]s_4[/tex] = [tex]s_2[/tex] + (1 + 1 + 1) + [tex]s_2[/tex] = 9

    and if I keep going with this pattern i'll get:
    [tex]s_5 = s_3 + (1 + 1 + 1) + s_3 = 13[/tex]
    So it looks like they are getting the following formula:
    [tex]s_k = s_{k-2}[/tex] + (1 + 1 + 1) + [tex]s_{k-2}[/tex]
    [tex]s_k = 2*s_{k-2}[/tex]+ 3

    So what I don't understand is, it says SHOW [tex]s_k <= 2*s_{k-2}[/tex] but I just showed up there that [tex]s_k = 2*s_{k-2}[/tex]

    So is that all I had to do? Is list out some more terms and generalize a formula?

    I'm struggling to work out your question owing to your notation.. Please go through it again and make sure when you don't write s_k-2 when you really mean (s_k) -2 or s_{k-2}. And what does == mean? (Third line from bottom.)

    The issue is simply this:

    you've shown that it is possible to move across in 2s_{k-2}+3 moves. You have not justified that the plan you set out above is actually the optimal strategy - it is conceiveable that there is a better way of doing it (there isn't as it happens). Thus you have shown that there is an algorithm that takes 2s_{k-2} + 3 moves, hence the best one takes s_k<= 2s_{k-2} +3 moves.

    Your solution can actually be improved. rather than building a tower of 8 in the second tower, you could build a tower of size 5 there. then put next 4 biggest rings in tower 3 and finally move the biggest ring to the target tower. This way it will take you only 49 steps. Thus the formula given in the question is correct. There really is shorter solutions. What you have found is the longest of possible solutions hence =<

    some more information. when you make the tower with height 5, you use all 4 towers to help build it. but once you make it, you keep it as it is and build your next tower only using the remaining 3 towers (like in the case of standard puzzle).

    I have included the solution for 4 tower case. Please have a look http://iq-games.blogspot.com/2011/04/towers-of-hanoi-part-8.html" [Broken].

    Havn't seen this algorithm before anywhere, if any of you have seen it, please let me know.

    Also in part 4,5 and 6 you will see the solution (in java) for the general case of 3 tower problem. (having all rings in the first tower at start is just a subset of this, general case is much more interesting and bit more challenging in recursion)

Transfer of Heat Question

  1. Jan 31, 2006 #1
    If the translational rms speed of the water vapor molecules (H2O) in air is 676 m/s, what is the translational rms speed of the carbon dioxide molecules (CO2) in the same air? Both gases are at the same temperature.

    So what I have so far...

    VrmsH20 = squareroot of 3RT/mCO2
    VrmsCO2 = squareroot of 3RT/mCO2

    676 = squareroot of mCO2/mH2O

    And I already found the mass of the CO2 and H2O, but then i'm stuck... Can anyone help please???
  2. jcsd
  3. Jan 31, 2006 #2
    [tex] V_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}} [/tex]

    since the temperature is the same, think proportion.

My Family - Poem by Jennifer Rondeau

My family will forever be in my heart,
My sister's mean the world to me,
More than life,
All I ever wanted was a complete family,
To have a mother whom I never met,
My family will always remain who they are in my heart and soul,
My family is more important than my friends and my lover,
Family will always come first,
Family is family,
No matter what they did they'll always remain family.

I was born in England in 1948 and lived in a small village in Lancashire. As far as I know I contracted polio in late 1948, but the only other person that I know of who caught polio lived around 14 miles (22 kilometres) away, although our families went to the same village school. My early history is very different from just about every other polio survivor I have met in that I was nursed at home. Both my parents were qualified nurses so I was spared the experience of being isolated from my family for an extended period. However, I did spend time in hospital later for several operations, which I found bad enough.

In 1973 my wife and I immigrated to Australia and our second child was born here. After employment in a number of roles in accounting and administration, I worked for myself. About 7 years ago I realized that I had some serious health issues and was diagnosed with the Late Effects of Polio. It became necessary for me to go in to semi-retirement as I was only able to work around 15 hours a week. But like many others, I found the change from long working hours (70 or 80 hours a week was my norm) did not keep my mind active enough.

Shortly after that I became involved with my local Post Polio Support Group in Springvale and in 2006 was elected to the Polio Advisory Committee of ParaQuad Victoria (now Independence Australia). I was involved in the initial development of the Polio Australia constitution and have served as the Polio Survivor representative for Victoria on the Management Committee since 2008. I was elected Treasurer of Polio Australia at the 2012 Annual General Meeting.

Michael Judson stood down from the Polio Australia Management Committee in February 2013 due to ill health. Michael was diagnosed with inoperable bone cancer and sadly passed away on Monday, 1 April 2013.

The TAP Algae Pad is the perfect "EASY TO USE" product. Simply add the Anti Algae Pad to your pond and it will quickly and effectively remove all algae. The TAP Algae pad has a unique 4 way control; Mechanical, Environmental, Biological and Chemical which ensures algae is removed from your pond.

Environmental control:
The Algae pad contains 2 inorganic buffers which help reduce and control the pH in garden ponds. A lowering of the pH will noticeably reduce the amount of green algae present. Environmental control is also achieved by removing nutrients from the water.

Mechanical control:
The Algae pad will trap nutrients from pond water. Enzymes will aid the breakdown of these nutrients and thus reduce algae growth. Natural extracts also help in the biological breakdown of suspended algae species.

Chemical control:
The TAP 4 way Algae Pad is impregnated with powerful flocculating agents quickly causing algae to clump together and sink to the bottom of the pond.

Biological control:
Place the Algae pad in any chamber of an external biological filter. The open cell properties and uniform structure of the pad ensure planktonic algae are trapped. Green water is thus removed from the pond.

Norwegian Sun cruises to Cuba from Port Canaveral now on sale

Norwegian Cruise Line will offer cruises to Cuba from Port Canaveral starting in summer 2018.

The cruise line will send Norwegian Sun fresh off a dry-dock overhaul to the port, offering four-night voyages with overnight stops in Havana, as well as Key West, and three-night itineraries to the Bahamas.

“We felt that Port Canaveral was the ideal location to offer our guests a value-rich onboard experience and exciting action-packed ports of call, including an overnight call in Havana, Cuba,” said Norwegian Cruise Line president and CEO Andy Stewart in a news release.

The cruise industry continues to double down on Cuba sailings, while airlines have cut back on service to the island nation. JetBlue flies to Cuba daily from Orlando International Airport and said earlier this month it plans no changes.

Travel to the communist island, which under the Obama administration had been allowed for individual “people-to-people” visits, is being rolled back under President Trump. Now, these mostly educational and cultural visits must be done as part of a group, something the cruise lines are banking on.

Carnival Corp. was the first U.S.-based cruise line to visit Cuba on a regular basis in nearly 50 years when it sailed on May 1, 2016, on its Fathom brand. In 2017, the company shifted service to Carnival Cruise Line, which began sailing to Cuba last month from Tampa. Royal Caribbean also sails from Tampa, while Norwegian this year offers Cuba sailings from PortMiami.

The Port Canaveral plans are something new for Norwegian Cruise Line, which had always previously vacated the port in the summer months. Currently sailing from the port, Norwegian Epic will migrate to Europe next April for Mediterranean service before its return in November.

"Port Canaveral is proud of our cruise partner, NCL, and we welcome their growth plans for the future," said port CEO John Murray. "Today's announcement validates the port's ongoing investments in state-of-the art facilities and continuous improvement in cruise operations. Our record numbers of passenger movements year after year demonstrates we are working hard and meeting the expectations of today’s largest and most sophisticated cruise ships."

Before its arrival, the 1,936-passenger Norwegian Sun will sail the fall and winter season in South America, and then undergo a 2½-week dry dock in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. On April 19, the ship will make its way to Port Canaveral via the Panama Canal on a 17-night sailing from Seattle.

The 78,309-gross-ton ship, which was built in 2001, will begin Port Canaveral sailings May 7 with Monday-Friday voyages to Cuba and Friday-Monday Bahamas trips with stops that include Nassau, Freeport and the line's private island Great Stirrup Cay.

Both the Cuba and Bahamas itineraries will include free drinks as part of the price point, including wine, beer and some premium alcohol for those 21 and older. The line said booking for the new itineraries will be available at the end of the month. Call 888-625-2784 or visit for details.

Pompey hero in Twitter spat

Darren Anderton

Why Pompey boss didn’t move for Henry

Have your say

Former Pompey winger Darren Anderton has become embroiled in a Twitter spat with a BBC commentator.

Connor McNamara has become the subject of Anderton’s fury for suggesting he could not take part in a ‘crossbar challenge’ at half-time during Spurs’ clash with Aston Villa on Monday because of injury.

Anderton, who picked up the nickname Sicknote in his career do to be sidelined regularly, launched a furious response including some colourful language.

The former Spurs man insisted he was asked to hand out prizes, but McNamara responded by stating he reported what was said by the stadium announcer.

The Match of the Day and Radio 5 Live commentator has since uploaded audio of the announcement.

But that has not appeased Anderton, who is still looking for an apology for the tweet.

First-hand accounts – our Master’s trainees talk about their job

  • “During my studies, I was never quite sure what direction I wanted to take. So I worked in different fields while I was studying, and I came to realize that I was particularly drawn to marketing and communication. As a trainee, I have the opportunity to become more familiar with these fields in practice. I particularly appreciate the varied nature of the work. I manage campaigns independently and work directly with agencies, while having to consider the various needs of internal stakeholders. This gives me the opportunity to assume responsibility and learn something new every day.”

  • “The people were what did it for me. I first encountered PostFinance at a graduate fair. The positive air of the people won me over right from the start, and my impression was confirmed in my interviews and my first few days at work. The way I was welcomed into my team was amazing. I get the opportunity to look into many different projects and assume responsibility for sub-projects. And my relationships with the other trainees are also great. We’re all different, but we complement and get on with each other really well. You can see it from the fact that we do things together in our spare time. The best example: a skiing weekend we organized together on our own initiative.”

Schofield told us the blogs he likes, as well as podcast and screencast sites he visits.

It’s a good reference for customers when they have questions about a specific topic since the Get Elastic blog posts usually have detailed examples with pictures. I don’t read very many non-technical blogs but this is one of two ecommerce blogs (beside Practical eCommerce) that I do
read when I have time.

Pretty much everyone in the Rails community has heard of this podcast. I tend to store these up on my iPod and listen to 4 or 5 at once when I have a long commute that day.

Railscasts Screencasts

The best single resource for discovering practical examples of Ruby on Rails. Ryan Bates produces high quality screencasts every week and this is the first place I go when I need to find an example of a specific feature in Rails.

As Books-A-Million backed off an attempt to buy 30 soon-to-close Borders bookstores, local chain Bull Moose said it plans to bid on leases at some of the locations.

Borders’ South Portland and Bangor locations were among the stores that Books-A-Million had talked about buying. Bull Moose wouldn’t say whether those two were among the locations it might bid on.

Bloomberg News reported Tuesday that Alabama-based Books-A-Million Inc., the nation’s third-largest book retailer, couldn’t agree on terms for purchasing the Borders Group Inc. stores.

Borders, which has 399 stores, filed for bankruptcy in February and last week started holding going-out-of-business sales.

Bull Moose owner Brett Wickard said Tuesday he’s considering opening “a handful” of so-called super stores in former Borders in New England states, including Maine.

The new stores, he said, would have “everything you would find at any Bull Moose … plus a ton more.”

The Portland-based chain, which sells music, movies and video games, expanded its Scarborough and Bangor stores in 2010 to start selling books at discount prices, according to a news release.

“We’ve been really happy with how the books have done so far in those locations and want to go bigger,” Wickard said.

Bull Moose, which opened in 1989, has eight stores in Maine and two in New Hampshire.

Ogilvy promotes Michael Frohlich to CEO for EMEA

Michael Frohlich: Tasked with developing a five-year PR strategy for Ogilvy EMEA

Frohlich joined Ogilvy in 2012 and became chief operating officer for the EMEA region in February. He will continue to act as UK CEO for the company in addition to his new EMEA duties.

Smith, who joined Ogilvy in 2010 to run the EMEA region, was promoted to global CEO last year but retained the title of EMEA CEO until today.

Earlier this month the firm announced it had trebled the membership of its executive committee.

Smith said: "Michael is simply one of the best PR people I have had the pleasure to hire and work with. Through his energy and passion, he has tirelessly built Ogilvy PR UK into the successful, award-winning agency we now are.

"Under his leadership we have transformed into a modern, earned media operation that is a highly creative, social-by-design with content totally at the center of our offer. This announcement is one in a series made recently to show how we will structure Ogilvy PR for the future."

Frohlich, whose first job will be to create a five-year strategy for Ogilvy PR in the EMEA region, said: "I thank Stuart for the successful partnership we enjoy and am excited to embrace the opportunity to continue growing our people, brand and business in the EMEA region at the service of our clients."
