Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Female scientists have greatly contributed to the advancement of science in all fields. However, they still face gender inequalities, and women are still underrepresented in leadership positions. To raise awareness of this issue, Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease is launching a Special Issue titled: “Women’s Special Issue Series: Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease”. This Special Issue is intended to provide an overview of some of the latest results and key findings in the field of tropical diseases of global significance as well as neglected tropical diseases. Articles where the lead authors are women, or that are completely authored by women, are encouraged. We welcome submissions from all authors, irrespective of gender.
Prof. Dr. Sandra Gemma
Guest Editor
