Journal of Oral Microbiology (JOM) expands its aims and scope to also include research on oral immunology and welcome several new editorial board members. With the restructuring of Wiley-Blackwell’s title Oral Microbiology and Immunology to Molecular Oral Microbiology as of February 2010, we hope that JOM's expanded scope will help to fill possible gaps in the publication field.

As a result of the expanded scope of the journal, we are pleased to welcome several new editorial board members:

Atsuo Amano, Osaka University
Gunnar Dahlén,Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg
Anna Dongari-Bagtzoglou, University of Connecticut Health Centre
Daniel Grenier, Université Laval
Suzanne M. Michalek, University of Alabama
Chris Sissons, University of Otago, Wellington
Clay Walker, University of Florida
David Williams, Cardiff University
