Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
Scope & Guideline
Empowering knowledge sharing in veterinary and medical sciences.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Transboundary Animal Diseases (TADs):
The journal extensively covers the epidemiology, control, and prevention of transboundary animal diseases such as African Swine Fever, Foot-and-Mouth Disease, and others, focusing on their impacts on both animal and public health. - Emerging Infectious Diseases (EIDs):
Research on newly emerging infectious diseases that pose threats to animal and human populations is a primary focus, including studies on their origins, transmission dynamics, and control strategies. - One Health Approach:
The journal emphasizes a One Health perspective, integrating human, animal, and environmental health research to address zoonotic diseases and their implications for public health. - Molecular Epidemiology and Genomics:
The use of molecular techniques to understand the genetic diversity, evolution, and transmission mechanisms of pathogens is a key aspect of the research published in the journal. - Risk Assessment and Surveillance:
Studies that assess risks associated with disease outbreaks and the effectiveness of surveillance systems are highlighted, providing insights into monitoring and controlling infectious diseases. - Biosecurity and Control Measures:
Research on biosecurity practices, vaccination strategies, and other control measures to prevent disease transmission in livestock and wildlife is a significant component of the journal's scope. - Impact of Climate and Environment on Disease Dynamics:
The journal also explores how environmental factors, including climate change, affect the distribution and emergence of infectious diseases in animal populations.
Trending and Emerging
- Genomic Surveillance and Pathogen Genomics:
Recent publications emphasize genomic surveillance and the genomic characterization of pathogens, highlighting the importance of understanding genetic variations and their implications for disease control. - Environmental and Climate Impact Studies:
Research increasingly focuses on how climate change and environmental factors influence the emergence and spread of infectious diseases, reflecting a growing recognition of the interconnectedness of health and the environment. - One Health Integration:
There is a notable rise in studies applying the One Health approach, integrating human, animal, and environmental health perspectives to address complex health challenges. - Emerging Viral Diseases:
The journal is seeing an uptick in research centered around emerging viral diseases, particularly those that pose zoonotic threats, such as SARS-CoV-2 and its variants, reflecting the urgency of understanding these pathogens. - Predictive Modelling and Risk Assessment Techniques:
Advancements in predictive modelling and quantitative risk assessment methods are increasingly featured, aimed at enhancing surveillance and response strategies for infectious disease outbreaks. - Antimicrobial Resistance Studies:
Research on antimicrobial resistance in livestock and wildlife is gaining traction, particularly in relation to the implications for public health and food security.
Declining or Waning
- Classic Zoonotic Diseases:
Research focusing specifically on classic zoonotic diseases, such as rabies and brucellosis, has seen a decline, possibly due to the increased focus on emerging diseases and their complex transmission dynamics. - Traditional Livestock Diseases:
Studies on traditional livestock diseases that are well-characterized and have established control measures, such as older strains of foot-and-mouth disease, are becoming less frequent as newer threats gain attention. - Localized Case Studies:
There has been a reduction in localized case studies that do not offer broader implications for transboundary disease management, as the journal increasingly favors studies with global or regional significance. - Veterinary Pathology Studies:
Research purely focused on veterinary pathology without a strong connection to epidemiology or public health implications appears to be waning, as the journal aims to bridge veterinary and public health concerns.
