Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The fields of clinical microbiology and infectious diseases are rapidly advancing due to progress in modern diagnostic methods, a deeper understanding of pathogenic mechanisms, and the continued emergence of new infectious threats. This Special Issue, “Infectious Diseases and Host Responses: Clinical, Immunological, and Outcome-Orientated Perspectives”, will bring together contributions that reflect on recent developments in the identification, surveillance, and management of infections, as well as research focused on host–microorganism interactions. We welcome submissions on topics such as antimicrobial resistance, emerging and re-emerging infections, the role of the microbiome, infection prevention, and relevant aspects of anti-infective therapy. Through an interdisciplinary approach, this Special Issue will foster scientific exchange and contribute to improving outcomes in the diagnosis, management, and control of infectious diseases.
Dr. Nicoleta Negruț
