The rate of submission of articles to Retrovirology continues on a steady upward curve as it consolidates its position as the leading specialist Virology journal. To help us to deal with this welcome increase in workload and also to expand the range of expertise within the Associate Editorship, Retrovirology is delighted to announce that two new Associate Editors have agreed to join the current line-up. We warmly welcome Professor Paul Gorry from the Burnet Institute in Melbourne and Professor Johnson Mak from Deakin University, Geelong to the Associate Editorial team. They bring their own specialist areas of knowledge to the journal and their own fresh perspectives and we look forward to working with them.
