We regret to announce the tragic passing of Dr Bob Morrison, a leading expert in swine production and a Professor of Veterinary Population Medicine at the University of Minnesota. He served as an Editorial Board Member for Porcine Health Management since the journals launch in 2014 and will be sorely missed within the swine health community. Our condolences go out to his family.

The journal provides a venue for global research on swine health and production, including infectious and non-infectious diseases, reproduction, epidemiology, management, economics, genetics, housing, nutrition, animal welfare and ethics, legislation, food safety, drugs and surgery.
