Microbes and Infection

Microbes and Infection publishes 10 peer-reviewed issues per year in all fields of infection and immunity, covering the different levels of host-microbe interactions, and in particular: the molecular biology and cell biology of the crosstalk between hosts (human and model organisms) and microbes (viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi), including molecular virulence and evasion mechanisms. the immune response to infection, including pathogenesis and host susceptibility. emerging human infectious diseases. systems immunology. molecular epidemiology/genetics of host pathogen interactions. microbiota and host "interactions". vaccine development, including novel strategies and adjuvants. Clinical studies, accounts of clinical trials and biomarker studies in infectious diseases are within the scope of the journal. Microbes and Infection publishes articles on human pathogens or pathogens of model systems. However, articles on other microbes can be published if they contribute to our understanding of basic mechanisms of host-pathogen interactions. Purely descriptive and preliminary studies are discouraged.

《微生物和感染》已被国际权威数据库SCIE收录，在中科院分区中位于3区，JCR分区位于Q2。 《微生物和感染》每年出版10期经同行评审的期刊，内容涉及感染和免疫的各个领域，涵盖宿主与微生物相互作用的不同层面，特别是宿主（人类和模式生物）与微生物（病毒、细菌、寄生虫和真菌）之间相互作用的分子生物学和细胞生物学，包括分子毒力和逃避机制。其刊登有关人类病原体或模型系统病原体的文章。不过，如果有关其他微生物的文章有助于我们了解宿主与病原体相互作用的基本机制，也可以发表。
