Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis is a speciality journal focusing on basic experimental research on tuberculosis.Tubercu... aims to publish original research and reviews. It publishes articles on host response and immunology of tuberculosis and the molecular biology, genetics and physiology of the organism.Submissions on bacteriological, immunological and pathogenesis aspects of the disease are particularly welcomed.The journal publishes topics including:• Clinical Trials • Diagnostics • Antimicrobial resistance • Immunology • Leprosy • Microbiology, including microbial physiology • Molecular epidemiology • Non-tuberculous Mycobacteria • Pathogenesis & Pathology • Vaccine developmentTuberculo... discourages submissions with a meta-analytical focus (eg, articles based on searches of published articles in public electronic databases, especially where there is lack of evidence of the personal involvement of authors in the generation of such material).Tuberculos... does not accept case report submissions or clinical case studies. You can submit manuscripts of this type to the companion journals IDCases and Clinical Microbiology Newsletter.- ISSN: 1472-9792
International Journal for Parasitology
Sponsored by the Australian Society for ParasitologyThe International Journal for Parasitology publishes the results of original research in all aspects of basic and applied parasitology, including all the fields covered by its Specialist Editors, and ranging from parasites and host-parasite relationships of intrinsic biological interest to those of social and economic importance in human and veterinary medicine and agriculture. Original research includes the development of novel and innovative concepts and ideas, as well as experimental and observational science that raises new hypotheses.We do not publish new genome sequences and assemblies alone without new and significant insight into the biology of the parasite, the parasite-host relationship or mechanisms of pathogenesis. Because of its breadth of discipline coverage, the aims and significance of all contributions should be made clear to readers who are not expert in the particular subject of papers. In applied parasitology, it will tend to favour contributions of broader significance to the subject rather than narrow, highly specialised applications. The principal form of publication is the full length paper which contains substantial results from a major program of research. The Journal also provides a medium for the publication of shorter, but complete, papers reporting highly significant original findings, as Succinctus articles. It also publishes Thematic Issues incorporating papers on a topical theme and commissions papers with emphasis on shorter, focussed Reviews of topical issues and strategically important subjects. The Journal encourages critical comment and debate on matters of current controversy in parasitology via "Current Opinions".The International Journal for Parasitology has also launched two specialist, open access titles you are welcome to submit to:International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and WildlifeInternationa... Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance- ISSN: 0020-7519
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology
Official Journal of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and ImmunologyThe Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology publishes high-impact, cutting-edge basic, clinical and translational research papers in Allergy, Asthma and Immunology. Articles cover such topics as asthma, food allergy, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, primary immune deficiencies, occupational and environmental allergy, and other allergic and immunologic diseases, and include clinical trials and mechanistic studies that report on novel therapies, insights into underlying mechanisms, and other discoveries that will inform our understanding of these diseases and ultimately improve the diagnosis and management of patients. With an impact factor of 11.2, the journal ranks 3rd out of 39 journals in the Allergy category and 11th of 183 journals in the Immunology category in the 2024 Journal Citation Reports®, published by Clarivate.Authors are also welcome to submit to the journal's companion titles, The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice and the Gold Open Access title, The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: Global. For more information on the articles reviewed by JACI: In Practice and JACI: Global, please visit their respective websites which are linked here: www.jaci-inpractice.... www.jaci-global.org- ISSN: 0091-6749
Journal of Hospital Infection
An Official Journal of the Healthcare Infection SocietyThe Journal of Hospital Infection is the editorially independent scientific publication of the Healthcare Infection Society. The aim of the Journal is to publish high quality research and information relating to infection prevention and control that is relevant to an international audience.The Journal welcomes submissions that relate to all aspects of infection prevention and control in healthcare settings. This includes submissions that:provide new insight into the epidemiology, surveillance, or prevention and control of healthcare-associate... infections and antimicrobial resistance in healthcare settings;provide new insight into cleaning, disinfection and decontamination;prov... new insight into the design of healthcare premises;describe novel aspects of outbreaks of infection;throw light on techniques for effective antimicrobial stewardship;describe novel techniques (laboratory-based or point of care) for the detection of infection or antimicrobial resistance in the healthcare setting, particularly if these can be used to facilitate infection prevention and control;improve understanding of the motivations of safe healthcare behaviour, or describe techniques for achieving behavioural and cultural change;improve understanding of the use of IT systems in infection surveillance and prevention and control.We also welcome submissions that relate to national policies or guidelines, especially where the subject matter is of international relevance.Although our readership is predominantly clinical, we are also pleased to receive basic science submissions that have clinical relevance.The Journal's open access companion title, Infection Prevention in Practice, welcomes a range of submissions providing practical information to healthcare professionals working in infection prevention and control.- ISSN: 0195-6701

Vaccine
The official journal of The Japanese Society for Vaccinology.Vaccine is unique in publishing the highest quality science across all disciplines relevant to the field of vaccinology - all original article submissions across basic and clinical research, vaccine manufacturing, history, public policy, behavioral science and ethics, social sciences, safety, and many other related areas (such as passive immunization) are welcomed. The submission categories as given in the Guide for Authors indicate where we receive the most papers. Papers outside these major areas are also welcome and authors are encouraged to contact us with specific questions. We also invite authors to submit relevant basic science and clinical reviews, methodological articles, opinion and commentary pieces, visual pieces, and letters. Authors are required to consult the Guide for Authors as the submission guidelines are dynamic and therefore subject to change.Vaccine has an open access companion journal titled Vaccine: X.The Editors retain the right to desk reject submissions without peer review when it is clear that the Guide for Authors has not been consulted.- ISSN: 0264-410X
