Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In 2022, we will celebrate the 10th anniversary volume of the journal Vaccines (ISSN 2076-393X), and we would be thrilled if you could join us on this wonderful occasion.
Vaccines is an international, peer-reviewed, quick-refereeing, open access journal published online by MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Vaccines is indexed by SCIE, PubMed (NLM), as well as others. The impact factor for this journal is 4.422, and it ranks 74/162 (Q2) in “Immunology” and 63/140 (Q2) in “Medicine, Research & Experimental Pharmacology” in Web of Science. The inaugural issue was released in 2013, and in 2020, we published the 1000th paper in this journal. In 2021, we have achieved our goal of publishing 1200 papers in one year. Vaccines is rapidly developing.
In recongition of this significant milestone, we are launching a Special Issue entitled “The 10th Anniversary of Vaccines—Vaccines against HIV and other viruses”. This Special Issue will include high-quality papers on topics within the broad scope of Vaccines. We will consider manuscripts that investigate anti-viral and anti-HIV immunity, immunological responses to potential viral vaccine antigens, the testing of viral vaccine candidates in animals and humans, the delivery methods of viral vaccine antigens, studies on vaccine adjuvants related to viral vaccine development, investigations of viral vaccine strategies that aim to raise broadly neutralizing antibodies, and theoretical studies that suggest and rationalize novel types of viral vaccines or novel ways of stimulating protective anti-viral immunity. It is our pleasure to invite you to contribute an original research paper or a comprehensive review article for peer review and possible publication in Vaccines
