One Health Microbiology & Infection (ISSN 3054-5161) is a peer-reviewed international journal that publishes high-quality research advancing understanding of microorganisms and infectious diseases within the One Health framework, which integrates human, animal, and environmental health. The journal focuses on the biology, diagnosis, ecology, transmission dynamics, antimicrobial resistance, and control of infectious agents of public, veterinary, and environmental health importance.
One Health Microbiology & Infection is an international platform for researchers, microbiologists, clinicians, veterinarians, epidemiologists, public health professionals, and policymakers to disseminate original research and evidence-based insights that reduce the burden of zoonotic and infectious diseases. The journal welcomes original research articles, systematic and narrative reviews, short communications, letters, and commentaries on bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic pathogens; zoonotic, emerging, and re-emerging infectious diseases; antimicrobial resistance and stewardship; pathogen genomics and proteomics, evolution, and molecular epidemiology; host–pathogen interactions; environmental and wildlife reservoirs; food-, water-, and vector-borne infections; surveillance systems, diagnostics, and outbreak investigations; and intervention strategies informed by One Health principles.
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, One Health Microbiology & Infection aims to contribute to global efforts to mitigate infectious disease threats and strengthen health security at the human–animal–environment interface.
Manuscripts will be rejected if standards of care or procedures for experimental animals do not meet those expected by human and veterinary scientists. At a minimum, standards must comply with the International Guiding Principles for Biomedical Research Involving Animals, as provided by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (C.I.O.M.S., c/o WHO, CH 1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland).
