Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The year 2022 marks the 10th anniversary of the publication of Pathogens. We would like to express our sincerest thanks to our readers, innumerable authors, anonymous peer reviewers, editors, and all the people working in one way or another for the journal, who have made substantial contributions over the years. We are delighted and proud to celebrate this milestone with a series of Special Issues and events.
A Special Issue entitled “10th Anniversary of Pathogens—Advances in Molecular and Cellular Parasitology” will be launched as a part of this celebration. This is intended to be a collection of high-quality research articles and reviews focusing on the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying parasite-caused diseases. Topics covered in this Special Issue include new insights into the molecular and cellular features of host/parasite interactions, understanding the immunological background of parasitic diseases, basic research findings that may translate into therapeutic opportunities, and finally recent technical advances can also be covered when they contribute to a better understanding of important molecular mechanisms and cellular aspects of parasitic diseases.
Dr. Sébastien Besteiro
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
