The success of Thyroid is a testament of the skilled leadership of esteemed prior Editors-in-Chief, as well as the immense contributions of Associate Editors, the Editorial Board, Peer Reviewers, dedicated ATA staff, and publishing authors. I look forward to working with Dr. Kebebew and the entire team at Thyroid in the EiC transitional period, in continuing to advance scientific publication in our field.

We are very excited for Dr. Sawka to assume the reins as the next Editor-in-Chief of Thyroid and have full confidence that she will successfully take the journal to even greater heights.”
