Aims & Scope

Aims

Zoonotic Diseases (ISSN 2813-0227) is an international, multidisciplinary, scholarly, peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes high-quality original research, review articles, brief reports, communications, and perspectives offering new insights into any aspect of zoonoses. Zoonotic diseases are infections that are shared in nature between humans and other vertebrate animal species. More than 60% of human infectious diseases are zoonoses resulting in a billion cases and millions of deaths annually. Zoonotic pathogens include an array of bacteria, viruses, parasites, their arthropod vectors, and prions infecting a range of species that include companion (pets and service) animals, livestock, and wildlife. Zoonoses are global threats to human and animal health security. Zoonotic Diseases provides an advanced global forum for research on zoonotic diseases, allowing scientists to publish manuscripts regarding any fundamental or applied aspects of zoonotic diseases.

The aim of Zoonotic Diseases is to encourage the publication of experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Full experimental details and/or method of study must be provided for research articles so that the results can be reproduced. All articles must be submitted with the necessary ethical approval (please refer to the Ethical Guidelines for more information).
