Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue titled "Swine Viruses: Immunology and Vaccinology" explores the frontiers of research in the battle against swine viral diseases. With a focus on the latest scientific breakthroughs, this Special Issue will examine the evolving nature of swine viruses, the dynamic mechanisms of the porcine immune system, and innovative strategies in vaccine development. It will provide a platform for scholars to discuss challenges and opportunities in the field, including the impact of emerging viruses, the role of genomics in vaccine design, and the integration of novel immunological insights. This collection aims to inspire new directions in research and to contribute to the advancement of swine health and disease prevention strategies.
