We're delighted to announce Prof Ernest Choy (University of Cardiff) as the incoming Editor-in-Chief of Rheumatology. In this episode, recorded at ACR23, Ernest tells us about his plans for the journal and the type of research he's keen to see. Ernest will take the reins from Dr Marwan Bukhari (Royal Lancaster Infirmary), who finishes his highly productive term as Editor-in-Chief in February 2024.Want to discuss a potential article?
