New Editor for Parasitology International
We are pleased to announce that Prof. Yasuhiro Suzuki, of University of Kentucky College of Medicine, will take over as co-Chief Editor of Parasitology International, when current co-editor Fidel Zavala steps down. Prof. Suzuki ‘s work is focussed on the mechanisms of the host immune responses to pathogens and the immunopathogenesis of infectious diseases. In particular he works with Toxoplasma gondii. We welcome him to the journal and also thank Prof. Zavala for the great work he has put into the journal over the past 3 years.
After serving more than 20 years with the journal Biological Control, Harry Kaya, will step down as Editor-in-Chief from the end of this year. Harry was one of the founding editors of the journal, and has worked tirelessly for the development of the journal into its pre-eminent position in the field of biological Control. Prof. David TeBeest of the University of Arkansas will become the new Editor-in-Chief, from January 1st. We wish to thank Harry for all his service, and are particularly pleased that he will stay connected to the journal, both as an editorial board member, and as a Guest Editor on forthcoming Special Issues. We also greatly look forward to working with Dave.
