Scope
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology is a multidisciplinary journal focused on all pathogenic microorganisms and their interactions with hosts. The journal is an affiliated partner with the Spanish Society of Virology (SEV).
The journal is led by Field Chief Editor Prof Yousef Abu Kwaik (University of Louisville, USA) and indexed in MEDLINE, PubMed Central (PMC), Scopus, Web of Science (SCIE), and DOAJ. Submissions on all types of microbial pathogens are welcome, along with studies on microbiota, the effect of microbes on host health and disease, and treatment of microbial infections.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Adaptive and innate immunity in infection;
Antibiotic resistance;
Antimicrobial drugs and vaccines;
Bacteria, fungi, parasites, viruses, endosymbionts, prions, and their hosts;
Biofilms;
Clinical microbiology;
Intestinal and oral microbiome;
Molecular bacterial and viral pathogenesis;
Veterinary and zoonotic infection.
Research approaches can include molecular microbiology, cellular microbiology, gene regulation, proteomics, signal transduction, pathogenic evolution, genomics, structural biology, virulence factors, and model hosts.
