Happy new year!
From all of us here at Rural and Remote Health, we wish you – the wonderful authors, reviewers and readers from our rural health community – a safe, healthy and productive 2025!
We are grateful to all whose valuable contributions have made journal publication possible this year.
Thanks to our team of Associate Editors and regional editorial panel members, whose commitment and efforts in support of Regional Editors are vital and very much appreciated.
We gratefully acknowledge the work and support of Dr Rebecca Evans and Sandra Lyons in project management, and the support and guidance of Professor Richard Murray and Professor Sarah Larkin (School of Medicine and Dentistry, James Cook University, Australia).
A monumental thank you to Sally Woollett for her brilliant editing and Matthew Murray for his tireless efforts in improving and maintaining the website.
We look forward to continuing to serve our international rural and remote health community by publishing open-access, free-to-publish and free-to-read impactful research in 2025.
