Advances in Microbiology, Infectious Diseases and Public Health

This book series focuses on current progress in the broad field of medical microbiology, and covers both basic and applied topics related to the study of microbes, their interactions with human and animals, and emerging issues relevant for public health. Original research and review articles present and discuss multidisciplinary findings and developments on various aspects of microbiology, infectious diseases, and their diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

Advances in Microbiology, Infectious Diseases and Public Health is a subseries of Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, which has been publishing significant contributions in the field for over 30 years and is indexed in Medline, Scopus, EMBASE, BIOSIS, Biological Abstracts, CSA, Biological Sciences and Living Resources (ASFA-1), and Biological Sciences. 2016 Impact Factor: 1.881.

Provides state-of-the-art information about infectious diseases affecting humans and animals Addresses the epidemiology and pathogenesis of emerging and re-emerging microbial infections Discusses the role of vaccines in the prophylaxis of severe infectious diseases Broadens the current understanding of multidrug-resistance and host immune response Informs on the new strategies for treatment of acute and chronic microbial infections Promotes prompt validation and transfer of the most promising experimental results at the clinical level
