Infection and Immunity focuses on host-pathogen interactions and encompasses a wide range of topics of interest to microbiologists, immunologists, epidemiologists, pathologists, and clinicians. Areas of interest include infections caused by pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and parasites; mechanisms of pathogenicity; interactions of virulence factors with host cells; host resistance, inflammation, and susceptibility to infection; the immunology of infectious diseases; development and evaluation of vaccines against nonviral pathogens; and the genomes of pathogenic bacteria.
