About the Journal

One Health Microbiology & Infection (ISSN 3054-5161) is a peer-reviewed international journal dedicated to publishing high-quality research on microorganisms and infectious diseases within the One Health framework, integrating human, animal, and environmental health. The journal focuses on the biology, epidemiology, diagnosis, transmission, antimicrobial resistance, prevention, and control of infectious agents of public, veterinary, and environmental health importance.

The journal provides an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, clinicians, veterinarians, microbiologists, epidemiologists, public health professionals, and policymakers to disseminate original research and evidence-based insights to help reduce the burden of infectious and zoonotic diseases. One Health Microbiology & Infection welcomes original research articles, reviews, short communications, letters, and commentaries covering bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic pathogens; emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases; antimicrobial resistance and stewardship; pathogen genomics, metagenomics, and molecular epidemiology; host–pathogen interactions; environmental and wildlife reservoirs; food-, water-, and vector-borne infections; surveillance, diagnostics, outbreak investigations, vaccines, and therapeutics; and the environmental, ecological, socio-economic, behavioral, and policy drivers of infectious diseases.

Priority is given to interdisciplinary and translational studies that generate actionable evidence for disease prevention, risk assessment, and health policy. By promoting rigorous science and cross-sectoral collaboration, the journal aims to support global efforts to mitigate infectious disease threats and strengthen health security at the human–animal–environment interface.

Manuscripts involving experimental animals must comply with internationally accepted ethical standards, including the International Guiding Principles for Biomedical Research Involving Animals established by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (C.I.O.M.S., c/o WHO, CH 1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland).
