The Editor-in Chief of the Journal of Nuclear Cardiology created in 2014 the “Mentorship at Distance Committee” to provide editorial assistance to foreign authors. The chair of the committee discusses in the present communication his 3-year experience with mentoring manuscripts. He addresses the selection of manuscripts, the process of mentoring and common problems encountered and resolved. The mentoring process required the full commitment by both the mentor and the author, because of necessary intensive and frequent communications by email. The average time involved from start to finish averaged about 9 weeks. Eight of 11 mentored manuscripts could be sufficiently revised and were accepted for publication.
