Ticks and Tick-Borne Pathogens
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
The TTP conferences have historically convened leading experts and researchers worldwide, focusing on ticks and tick-borne pathogens. This eleventh edition promises to be no different, offering a platform to showcase groundbreaking research, innovative methodologies, and promising discoveries in various facets of tick biology. These encompass tick physiology, microbiome and genomics, taxonomy and the evolution of ticks and tick-borne pathogens, their ecological and epidemiological aspects, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and strategies for control, including immunity and vaccines.
For more information regarding the TTP11 Conference and opportunities to present your research, please visit https://agropecuaria.cigb.edu.cu/ttp11/ or https://zooparaz.net/ttp11/. Furthermore, we invite you to contribute to a Topic in renowned MDPI journals such as Pathogens, Animals, Vaccines, Veterinary Sciences, Arthropoda and Insects.
This Topic offers researchers the chance to publish enhanced and refined versions of their conference contributions, thus extending the impact of their work far beyond the event itself. This proposal represents a valuable opportunity to advance the dissemination of cutting-edge research and foster collaboration within the tick research community—an essential step towards advancing the field. Moreover, this Topic will be a lasting repository of the collective knowledge and insights shared during TTP11. We eagerly anticipate receiving your contributions.
