With the support of our authors, reviewers, readers, and members of the Editorial & Advisory Board, Virologica Sinica has made steady and remarkable progress in recent years. In 2021, the journal’s impact factor reaches 4.327, and ranks 13/37 in the Virology category, according to the 2020 Journal Citation Reports. In addition to the enhancement of article quality, the publication volume has also made constant growth. A total of 190 articles, including three special issues on Africa swine fever virus, human adenovirus and COVID-19, are compiled in 2021.
We have another exciting news to share with you that, Virologica Sinica will become a fully open access (OA) journal on 1 January 2022, for a faster publishing, greater visibility, and wider connection. Aiming for a high-profile virology journal, we will continue to serve the scientific community actively and dedicatedly.
Here, the editors of Virologica Sinica want to extend our gratitude and recognition to the following experts who contributed as reviewers between November 1, 2020 and October 31, 2021. Your efforts greatly improved not only individual manuscripts but the quality of the journal and overall research in the field of viruses. While advancing to open access next year, we are looking forward your continued support and guidance. Apology is offered to any other reviewer whose name has been inadvertently omitted.
