Virulence is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to exploring the molecular mechanisms and evolutionary aspects of pathogenicity in microorganisms. It publishes original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that shed light on how bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites cause disease in their hosts. The journal provides a platform for understanding the complex interactions between pathogens and their hosts, and for identifying novel targets for therapeutic intervention.
Virulence covers a broad range of topics, including microbial adhesion, invasion, toxin production, immune evasion, and the evolution of virulence factors. Indexed in major databases like CAS, Scopus, and Web of Science. The journal serves as a valuable resource for researchers in microbiology, immunology, and infectious diseases.
Virulence encourages submissions that advance the understanding of microbial pathogenesis and inform the development of new strategies to combat infectious diseases. By fostering collaboration and disseminating cutting-edge research, Virulence plays a crucial role in improving human and animal health.
