10th Anniversary

Serving as a Guest Editor on a Special Issue of Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease on climate and health has been a smooth and efficient experience. The journal’s submission and review system is intuitive, enabling easy management of manuscripts and communication with authors and reviewers. The editorial team is consistently prompt and helpful, ensuring that reviews are obtained on time and decisions are not unduly delayed. Once accepted, papers move rapidly through copy-editing and production to online publication. This high level of efficiency significantly supports my work, and hopefully will result into the success of the Special Issue.

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease has rapidly emerged as a pivotal platform for the dissemination of critical research in its field. On the occasion of its 10th anniversary in 2026, we celebrate a decade of significant contributions to the scientific community. Since its inaugural issue in 2016, the journal has demonstrated a remarkable trajectory of growth and impact. Its commitment to open access principles and a rigorous, rapid peer-review process have made it an invaluable resource for researchers, clinicians, and public health professionals worldwide. The journal's swift inclusion in prestigious databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and the Web of Science is a testament to its high standards and the quality of its publications.

As the official journal of the Australasian College of Tropical Medicine (ACTM), Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between research and practice. It has become a leading voice in the fight against tropical and infectious diseases, addressing key areas such as vector-borne diseases, neglected tropical diseases, and the "One Health" approach. I commend the editorial team, led by Professor John Frean, for their vision and dedication. As Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease embarks on its next decade, I am confident that it will continue to advance our understanding and management of these complex global health challenges.
