Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Emerging Pathogens:
The journal prioritizes research on newly identified or re-emerging infectious agents, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites that pose significant health risks globally. - Microbial Pathogenesis:
Studies exploring the mechanisms by which microbes cause disease, including host-pathogen interactions, virulence factors, and immune evasion strategies. - Epidemiology and Surveillance:
Research on the distribution, determinants, and dynamics of infectious diseases, including genomic epidemiology, outbreak investigations, and surveillance methodologies. - Vaccine Development and Immunology:
Focus on the development of vaccines against emerging infectious diseases, including studies on immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety of novel vaccine candidates. - Antimicrobial Resistance:
Research addressing the growing challenge of antimicrobial resistance in pathogens, including mechanisms of resistance, epidemiological trends, and potential therapeutic strategies. - One Health Approach:
Integration of human, animal, and environmental health perspectives to understand and manage infectious disease risks, highlighting the interconnectedness of health systems.
Trending and Emerging
- COVID-19 Research:
A significant increase in studies related to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, covering aspects such as vaccine efficacy, variants of concern, and long COVID, highlighting the pandemic's ongoing impact on global health. - Genomic Epidemiology:
Growing interest in the application of genomic techniques to track pathogen evolution, transmission dynamics, and outbreaks, enhancing understanding of infectious disease spread. - Novel Vaccine Platforms:
Development and evaluation of innovative vaccine technologies, including mRNA and viral vector vaccines, particularly in response to emerging infectious threats. - Host-Pathogen Interactions:
Increased focus on understanding the complexities of host immune responses to infections, particularly in the context of emerging pathogens and co-infections. - Environmental and Zoonotic Diseases:
Research addressing the links between environmental changes, zoonotic pathogens, and human health, emphasizing the importance of a One Health perspective in managing infectious diseases. - Antimicrobial Stewardship:
Emerging strategies aimed at combating antimicrobial resistance through stewardship programs, novel therapeutics, and public health initiatives.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Infectious Disease Models:
Research utilizing classical models for studying infectious diseases, such as animal models for vaccine testing, has seen a decrease as newer methodologies and technologies are adopted. - Epidemiological Studies Focused Solely on Endemic Diseases:
There has been a shift away from studies that focus exclusively on long-standing endemic diseases towards more urgent and emerging infections, reflecting a global health focus. - Basic Virology Without Clinical Applications:
Research that does not directly translate into clinical applications or public health strategies has become less prominent, as there is a growing demand for studies that impact immediate health outcomes. - Non-Pathogenic Microbial Studies:
Investigations into non-pathogenic or benign microbes, while still relevant, have diminished in the context of the journal’s focus on urgent infectious threats.
