Microbiology and Immunology
Overview
Microbiology and Immunology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that focuses on the study of microorganisms and the immune system. It publishes original research articles, reviews, and commentaries covering various aspects of microbiology, including microbial pathogenesis, host-pathogen interactions, immunology, and vaccine development. The journal serves as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and students interested in understanding the intricate relationship between microorganisms and the immune response.
