In this editorial, the author observes that the coming years promise a number of challenges, including the proliferation of open-source journals, increasingly interdisciplinary work that requires evaluation from multiple perspectives, and growing concerns about replication. Obviously the continuation of excellence will require effective management to keep submission and review processes efficient and publication lag at a minimum. At the same time, moving the journal forward in the face of accelerating science and new publication models demands thoughtful examination of values. Meeting this challenge will depend on maintaining a balance along a number of dimensions. These dimensions include (1) balance between rigor and innovation, (2) balance between basic and applied/translation science, (3) balance between discovery and justification, (4) balance in the editorial team, (5) balance between gatekeeping and mentoring, and (6) balance between accessibility and technical exposition.
