After more than 8 years, our terms as Co-Editors-in-Chief have now reached an end. We are thankful for having had the privilege to serve the community in this position. We think that we have reached our original goal of increasing the overall quality of the journal (1). The science which is reported every month in Allergy is of high quality and wide interest, largely contributing to the development of the fields of Allergy and Immunology. The impact of the journal is high, as reflected by its present impact factor of 7.36. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
