Feature Papers in Human and Animal Stresses
This special issue belongs to the section “Animal and Human Stresses“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Topical Collection, entitled “Feature Papers in Human and Animal Stresses”, welcomes the submission of reviews and original research articles that reflect experimental and interventional trials aimed at mitigating the impacts of an extensive range of environmental stressors, including physical (noise, heat), biological (virus, parasites), chemical (heavy metals, microplastics, pesticide/herbicides) and metabolic (oxidative Stress, osmotic stress, nutritional stress). Whilst research on interventions designed to enhance developmental and reproductive outcomes is particularly encouraged, studies that focus on the impact of interventions targeting other health outcomes are also welcome. Investigations in humans, animals, and cell culture are also encouraged, and human studies may be cross-sectional, case–control or intervention trials. We look forward to your contribution to this exciting collection, attending to the latest advances in the research domain of human and animal stresses.
