FOREWORD FOR ISSUE 2, Volume 21

In this issue, we are excited that in this second half of volume 21, after the re-launch of Tropical Journal of Medical Research (TJMR)!, we had to welcome more than 30 experts to our editorial network. We would like to take this chance to thank you all for your hard work and efficiency. It is truly appreciated and we could not have had such a successful issue without you.
To our Review and Section Editors, you form an essential part of our editorial board and belong to a trusted network of experts who regularly help us make decisions on the journal content. Therefore, we thank you immensely for your continued contribution.
To our global readers, you form an essential part of our commitment to success and your regular input has continued to accelerate us to greater heights.
Along this line, we continue to make it our priority to communicate and promote expert research in tropical medicine to the widest possible audience. We continue to rely on the researchers like you who are actively working in their research field. We continually work to call for manuscripts in emerging medical topics.

We are also grateful to cPrint Publisher-(Cpp), Nigeria for their continued support.
