Infection and Immunity (I&I)

Infection and Immunity® (IAI) provides new insights into the interactions between bacteria, fungi, and parasites and their hosts. Specific areas of interest include host cellular and immune response to microbes, molecular mechanisms of action of beneficial microbes or host-associated microbial communities, microbial pathogenesis, virulence factors, experimental models of infection, host resistance or susceptibility, and the generation of innate and adaptive immune responses. IAI will not consider papers that are preliminary, purely descriptive, or case studies. Clinical studies may be suitable for consideration by IAI if they provide novel insights into infectious disease pathogenesis or noncommunicable diseases associated with microbiota imbalances. IAI welcomes studies of the microbiome that relate to host-microbe interactions. Papers describing methodology are not encouraged; only under unusual circumstances will they be considered for publication. IAI will consider manuscripts dealing with certain aspects of genomics. They should address comparative genomics of pathogenic and nonpathogenic organisms to develop new insights into the mechanisms of infection, vaccine development, evolution, host response, and host-microbiota interaction, and they should include the observations that lead to such insights. References used for the analysis may include URLs (http and ftp) from major sites (e.g., GenBank and Swiss-Prot). IAI will not consider reports that emphasize nucleotide sequence data alone (without experimental documentation of the functional and evolutionary significance of the sequence).
