Journal introduction: Emerging Microbes & Infections

细菌耐药

Emerging Microbes & Infections (EMI) is a new open access, fully peer-reviewed international journal. The purpose of EMI is to provide a forum to publish a wide range of scientific reports related to emerging infectious diseases, especially with new information from developing countries where such diseases are constantly arising and being discovered regularly. It will report discoveries of emerging microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi and other pathogens) including their previously unknown phenotypic or genotypic characteristics, as well as cutting edge information associated with microbial mechanisms of pathogenesis, immune evasion and protection, clinical presentation and outcome, drug efficacy and its resistance, epidemiology and other issues important to global health.

EMI received an Impact Factor of 4.012*.

EMI SPECIAL TOPICS

EMI Special Topics are designed to bring together manuscripts published under similar scientific themes, such as TB, hepatitis, drug resistance, or EV71. Each Special Topic is organized under the supervision of 1-2 Guest Editors who is an active investigator in the specific area of interest.

EMI Special Topics provide a unique forum to publish and compile manuscripts that address key research questions from an important area of emerging infectious diseases. Both historical and current results and opinion will be included so that authors and readers can achieve a better understanding of the key issues. At the same time, we hope that this forum will inspire further research, leading to more published results in this continuously growing space.

ZIKA
Guest Editors: Kwok-yung Yuen (Department of Microbiology, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China) and Shan Lu (Department of Medicine, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA, USA).
Zika, which was first isolated from the serum of a febrile sentinel rhesus macaque in 1947 in Zika Forest of Uganda, is emerging as a major ongoing pandemic worldwide in the last few years. Zika virus is a single-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) virus mainly transmitted by mosquitoes. EMI has published a growing list of novel research reports related to different aspects of Zika epidemics and a special topic in this area is established to facilitate the easy access by global researchers.

EBOLA
Guest Editors: Hans-Dieter Klenk (Institut für Virologie, Philipps-Universität, Marburg, Germany) and Shan Lu (Department of Medicine, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA, USA)
Emerging Microbes & Infections (EMI) is proud to present the special topic- Ebola, which covers a wide range of research questions including drug discovery, passive immune therapy and vaccine development, leading to the effective control of this deadly virus.

EV71- a major emerging threat to children in Asia
Guest Editor: Ralf Altmeyer (Institut Pasteur Shanghai) and Shan Lu (U Mass Medical School)
This EMI Special Topic on EV71 includes papers on the characterization of EV71, a potentially highly virulent emerging viral infection targeting the pediatric population.

Drug Resistance and Novel Antimicrobial Agents
Guest Editor: Ying Zhang (Johns Hopkins University, USA)
In this Special Topic we provide papers on antimicrobial resistance in all medically relevant bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi including epidemiology and surveillance of resistant microbes, mechanisms of action and resistance, detection of resistance, treatment practice and strategies, and new drug development.

Tuberculosis (TB)- what is new
Guest Editors: QianGao (Shanghai Medical College, Fudan University, China) and Wenhong Zhang (Huashan Hospital, China)
The EMI Special Topic on TB incorporates research reports and high quality reviews on the following areas of TB research: epidemiology, fundamental research, development of new diagnostics and biomarkers, development of new drugs and vaccines, and public health issues related to this important pathogen.

Hepatitis- updates from the classical emerging infections
Guest Editor: Shuping Tong (Brown University, USA) and Xinxin Zhang (Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai)
Hepatitis viruses (HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV, HEV) belong to diverse virus families and are transmitted by different routes. Some are enveloped and the genome can be single-stranded RNA or double-stranded DNA. Though HAV and HEV usually cause acute infections, chronic HEV infections have been observed recently. Various mechanisms for persistent infections by HBV or HCV, and their roles leading to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma have been further explored. Novel data on the molecular biology of hepatitis viruses, antiviral drugs, and new therapeutic targets have been presented regularly. EMI Special Topic - Viral Hepatitis will cover these hepatitis viruses in terms of biology, pathogenesis, immune response, therapy, and prevention, with special emphasis on recent progress.

Emerging seasonal and pandemic influenza infections
Guest Editor: Hongzhou Lu (Shanghai Public Health Clinic Center, Fudan University, Shanghai)
EMI Special Topic- emerging seasonal and pandemic influenza infections will include papers on the basic and clinical researches of emerging influenza viruses in recent years. Influenza was prevalent all over the world and can cause severe diseases in high-risk people. Avian influenza viruses can also infect human and cause deaths. The human infection caused by highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (H5N1) occurred initially in Hongkong in 1997. Human infection with avian influenza A(H7N9) was first reported from China in March 2013. The understanding of the pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of avian influenza virus infection has been enhanced. Extensive studies have been done on the seasonal influenza viruses especially influenza A(H1N1)pdm09. The H1N1 virus strain was first identified in 2009, caused the H1N1 influenza pandemic and is still circulating all over the world. EMI Special Topic-influenza welcomes research reports and high quality reviews on these important emerging viruses.
