About the journal

Scope

El alcance incluye investigaciones sobre mecanismos moleculares y celulares de infección, biología de patógenos, evasión del sistema inmune, ecología del microbioma en la salud y la enfermedad, epidemiología molecular, biofilm microbiano y el desarrollo de antimicrobianos e inmunoterapias.

Aims

Promover la comprensión profunda de las infecciones microbianas y las respuestas celulares del huésped, proporcionando una plataforma global de acceso abierto que conecte la ciencia básica con la aplicación clínica para combatir enfermedades infecciosas.
