Journal Guide

EJCMID is an interdisciplinary journal devoted to the publication of communications on infectious diseases of bacterial, viral and parasitic origin. The journal welcomes full articles presenting original research results, invited editorials, and reviews on the following topics:General epidemiology and diagnostics of infectious agentsClinical infectious diseases researchGenetics and phenotypes of host susceptibility towards infectious disease or colonizationUse of animal models to study bacterial infections and the imaging of such infections

Studies should primarily be performed from a mechanistic point of view with emphasis on the inter-relatedness of molecular features with clinical presentation of infections. Papers on the translational application of basic research findings will be prioritized.

The European Journal of Immunology (EJI) is a basic immunology research journal, focusing on various aspects of immunology including but not limited to antigen processing, cellular immune response, immunity to infection, immunomodulation, innate immunity, molecular immunology, leukocyte signalling, clinical immunology, and new technology. Established in 1971, the Journal has been serving the needs of the immunology community worldwide with objective enthusiasm. While mechanistic insight, which helps us better understand the workings of the immune system is of great importance for EJI, we are also interested in studies that contain thought-provoking immunological findings. HIGHLIGHTS 2010.

Journal of clinical and molecular medicine is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal providing a platform for advances in health care/clinical practices in combination with basic findings in mechanisms of disease pathogenesis to therapy.

Cumulative of clinical practices with an insight for researchers within the community in regard to developing molecular tools and identifying molecular targets for the diagnosis and treatment of a diverse number of human diseases is the primary goal of Journal.

Journal will feature research, review papers, reports, editorials, expert opinion and perspective papers, commentaries, and book reviews.

Journal of clinical and molecular medicine accepts direct submissions from authors: Attach your word file with e-mail and send it to: submissions@oatext.com  alternatively to editor.jcmm@oatext.com

Articles deal with protists, unicellular organisms encountered free-living in various habitats or as parasites or used in basic research or applications. The European Journal of Protistology covers topics such as the structure and systematics of protists, their development, ecology, molecular biology and physiology. Beside publishing original articles the journal offers a forum for announcing scientific meetings. Reviews of recently published books are included as well. With its diversity of topics, the European Journal of Protistology is an essential source of information for every active protistologist and for biologists of various fields.

The European Journal of Soil Biology covers all aspects of soil biology which deal with microbial and faunal ecology and activity in soils, as well as natural ecosystems or biomes connected to ecological interests: biodiversity, biological conservation, adaptation, impact of global changes on soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning and effects and fate of pollutants as influenced by soil organisms. Different levels in ecosystem structure are taken into account: individuals, populations, communities and ecosystems themselves. At each level, different disciplinary approaches are welcomed: molecular biology, genetics, ecophysiology, ecology, biogeography and landscape ecology.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy (ISSN 1478-7210) provides expert reviews on therapeutics and diagnostics in the treatment of infectious disease. Coverage includes antibiotics, drug resistance, drug therapy, infectious disease medicine, antibacterial, antimicrobial, antifungal and antiviral approaches, and diagnostic tests.The Expert Review format is unique. Each review provides a complete overview of current thinking in a key area of anti-infective research or clinical practice. This comprehensive coverage is augmented by:Expert Commentary- a personal view on the most effective or promising strategiesFive-year view - a clear perspective of future prospects within a realistic timescaleKey issues - an executive summary cutting to the author's most critical points.

Through recent research advances we are increasingly able to understand and address immune-mediated diseases. Biotechnology is yielding success in areas with a strong immunologic component, such as allergic asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. Nevertheless, the burden of immune-mediated diseases is still enormous, with direct and indirect costs associated with such conditions believed to exceed $100 billion in the USA alone.Expert Review of Clinical Immunology (ISSN 1744-666X) provides expert analysis and commentary regarding the performance of new therapeutic and diagnostic modalities in clinical immunology. Members of the International Editorial Advisory Panel of Expert Review of Clinical Immunology are the forefront of their area of expertise. This panel works with our dedicated editorial team to identify the most important and topical review themes and the corresponding expert(s) most appropriate to provide commentary and analysis. All articles are subject to rigorous peer-review, and the finished reviews provide an essential contribution to decision-making in clinical immunology.

Expert Review of Vaccines (ISSN 1476-0584) provides expert reviews on the clinical effectiveness of new vaccines. Coverage includes vaccine technology, vaccine adjuvants, prophylactic vaccines, therapeutic vaccines, AIDS vaccines and vaccines in bioterrorism. All articles are subject to rigorous peer-review.
