Food and Waterborne Parasitology
The relevant parasites include protozoa, nematodes, cestodes and trematodes which are transmitted by food or water and capable of infecting humans. Pertinent food includes products of animal or plant origin which are domestic or wild, and consumed by humans. Animals and plants from both terrestrial and aquatic sources are included, as well as studies related to potable and other types of water which serve to harbor, perpetuate or disseminate food and waterborne parasites.
Studies dealing with prevalence, transmission, epidemiology, risk assessment and mitigation, including control measures and test methodologies for parasites in food and water are of particular interest.
Evidence of the emergence of such parasites and interactions among domestic animals, wildlife and humans are of interest. The impact of parasites on the health and welfare of humans is viewed as very important and within scope of the journal. Manuscripts with scientifically generated information on associations between food and waterborne parasitic diseases and lifestyle, culture and economies are also welcome. Studies involving animal experiments must meet the International Guiding Principles for Biomedical Research Involving Animals as issued by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences.
The primary form of publication in the journal is a full-length paper describing scientifically-sound original research studies. Less than full-length publications include Brief Communications of original research findings, and Investigative Reports describing studies of unique single cases or widespread outbreaks. Review articles on specific high profile topics, emerging or strategic issues may be solicited for publication, but requests for such submissions may also be made. Topical review articles based on keynote presentations at conferences or workshops will be considered.

Radioengineering: Proceedings of Czech and Slovak Technical Universities
For the last 20 years, the Radioengineering journal quarterly has been publishing original scientific and engineering papers from the area of radio engineering and science.The nature of the Radioengineering journal is interdisciplinary. This journal is interested in covering a wide area of radio electronics starting from applied electromagnetism, wave propagation and antennas, continuing to high-frequency circuits and optoelectronics, and finishing with signal processing and multimedia, wireless communications and telecommunications and finally biomedial engineering topics. The journal can, therefore, present a wide view on all aspects of today's radio engineering and science, initiate a mutual inspiration between disciplines; and support their cohesion in the frame of complex radio electronic systems.The Radioengineering journal makes an effort to encourage a younger generation of scientists and engineers. The journal offers them their first publication opportunity and gives them their first experience in writing a scientific paper. Independent reviewers carefully review each submitted paper, and attempt to explain its stronger and weaker aspects to the authors in detail.Each June and December, the Radioengineering journal prepares special issues focused on selected topics of importance and current interest. In the past, special issues published in December were devoted to mobile communications, multimedia, utilization of MATLAB, advances in antennas and microwaves, electromagnetic compatibility, advanced electronic circuits, both analog and digital, from low frequencies to millimeter waves, metamaterials, optical free space communication, cognitive radio etc. The special issues published in June usually contain papers focused on a very narrow area of the radio engineering field.The Radioengineering journal is the member of the Sister Societies' Publications of the IEEE Communications Society. Since volume 16 (2007), the Radioengineering journal has been selected for coverage in Thomson Reuters products and custom information services; the journal is indexed and abstracted in Science Citation Index Expanded and Journal Citation Reports. The Radioengineering journal is covered by the Directory of Open Access Journals, is listed in INSPEC and covered by SCOPUS. That way, a good accessibility of the published matter is ensured.
