Infection and Immunity

Infection and Immunity covers a broad range of topics important to microbiologists, immunologists, epidemiologists, pathologists, and clinicians. Areas of interest include infections caused by pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and parasites, mechanisms of pathogenicity and virulence factors such as toxins and microbial surface structures, factors involved in host resistance, inflammation, and susceptibility to infection, immunology of microbial infection, development and evaluation of vaccines against pathogens, molecular genomics dealing with information from the genomes of pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacteria.
