Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Infectious diseases pose an ongoing threat to animal and human health, significantly impacting both sectors. Animal diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms contribute to losses via reduced productivity, mortality, economic costs, and decreased trade.

Understanding the immunology of infectious disease pathogens is the key to driving control strategies. Currently, novel technologies based on molecular biology make it possible to develop several kinds of vaccines to enable the onset of rapid and effective immune responses.

We are pleased to invite you to submit research articles examining current research in immunization strategies for infectious diseases relevant to animal health, including zoonoses. This Special Issue aims to present articles on vaccine immunogenicity, efficacy, and screening methods to test vaccines. Review articles are also welcome.
