Layout 1 Gifts from EJTM and PDM3 Eur J Transl Myol 35 (2) 14070, 2025 doi: 10.4081/ejtm.2025.14070 The summer of 2025 approaches with the need to finalize our plans for next years. This is urgent for the 2026 Meeting of the Padua Days of Muscle and Mobility Medicine (PDM3) to be held March 3 to 6, 2026 at the Hotel Petrarca in the Thermae of Euganean Hills (Padua), Italy. A preliminary 2026 PDM3 flyer is almost ready with organizers, session program, and keynote speakers. Some are the traditional organizers of the PDM3 sessions dedicated to molecular and cellular myology, but there will also be interesting new entries. Furthermore, a new website, named Padua Muscle Days (PMD), will be soon released with all the needed information for How to Join, Registration, Accommodation, Payments and the Abstract Template for the 2026 PDM3. We hope that our readers will circulate its link (www.paduamuscledays.com) among Colleagues and Friends. No doubt that 2026 PDM3 will be a great gift for all Participants, as is the tradition of the Padua Days on Muscle and Mobility Medicine.1-9 The other novelty scheduled for June 2025 is the 2024 Impact Factor Clarivate will publish. It could be a big or small gift. As authors who publish in other journals, but even Abstract The summer of 2025 is approaching and the need to finalize our plans for the next few years is urgent. The next Padua Days of Muscle and Mobility Medicine (PDM3) will be held from 3 to 6 March 2026 at the Hotel Petrarca, Euganean Thermae (Padova, Italy). A preliminary flyer for 2026PDM3 is almost ready with organizers, session schedule and keynote speakers. A new Website, named Padua Muscle Days, will be soon released with all the needed information for How to Join, Registration, Accommodation, Payments and the Abstract Template for the 2026 PDM3. We hope that readers will circulate its link (www.paduamuscledays.com) among Colleagues and Friends. No doubt that 2026 PDM3 will be a great gift for all Participants. The other novelty scheduled for June 2025 is the 2024 Impact Factor that Clarivate will publish. As authors who publish in other journals, but even more as reviewers, readers could contribute to making bigger a small gift. In any case, it is a gift that has been waited for decades. Four Guest Editors have done their best to make the 35 (2) 2025 European Journal of Translational Myology and Mobility Medicine (Ejtm) a very special ssue. Indeed, it is mainly dedicated to two Thematic Sections. The first, with more works, is named Advances in Musculoskeletal and Neuromuscular Rehabilitation – Maria Chiara Maccarone & Stefano Masiero, Eds. The second is called: Generative AI for Translational Mobility Medicine, Giorgio Fanò-Illic & Riccardo Forni, Eds., and aims to attract works that use Digital Methods for Translational Mobility Medicine. We invite the members of the Ejtm editorial board and the authors of highly cited articles to follow these examples and suggest further thematic sections for the Ejtm of the next decade. Key Words: European journal of translational myology and mobility medicine; guest editors of thematic sections; impact factor; Padua days of muscle and mobility medicine.
