Hi folks.
Issue 6 for 2025 is live on our website . It pairs very well with a warm crackling fire, hot tea, and even sunscreen for those of you in the Southern hemisphere. It's also a great way to escape mansplaining at holiday parties. Find out more about it on our Substack post. As always, there's a wide mix of topics, fields, and authors. We hope you'll enjoy it.
We're also continuing our tradition of shutting down submissions for two weeks during winter break. December 22 is the last day to submit before we reopen on January 5 when the INFORMS staff return. Everyone will still have access to the Scholar One system during that period, but no one is expected to complete a review. We believe it's important to shut off the inlet valve sometimes in a career where work seeps through every crack into our personal lives. So for those of you who planned a New Year's Eve party to coincide with clicking the "Submit" button, thanks for your patience and understanding.
Wishing everyone a relaxing break,
Lamar
