Hence, I invited a series of Centenary Reviews from eminent grain scientists; three of these distinguished reviews have already been published in Volume 100, and others will be published in subsequent issues. It is also noteworthy that among the many excellent papers published so far in Volume 100 of Cereal Chemistry, there are seven other reviews on the following topics: the chemistry of wheat gluten; contribution of glutenin and puroindoline proteins to wheat grain quality; advances in the development of multigrain bread; substitution of sugar with xylitol and maltitol in cakes; increasing whole grain intake within the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children; and biotechnological approaches to improving aromas and flavors of legume-derived food products. I commend these excellent articles to you. I see my role as Editor-in-Chief as a facilitator, rather than a gatekeeper, for publishing high-quality research that connects with a broad readership. I look forward to reading submissions from your research and to making the experience of publishing in Cereal Chemistry rewarding and enjoyable.
