感染和免疫涵蓋了對微生物學家、免疫學家、流行病學家、病理學家和臨床醫生很重要的廣泛的主題。感興趣的領域包括致病菌、真菌和寄生蟲引起的感染;毒素和微生物表面結構等致病性和毒力因素的機理;與宿主耐藥性、炎癥和感染易感性有關的因素;微生物感染免疫學;以及病原體疫苗的開發和評估。

Infection and Immunity covers a broad range of topics important to microbiologists, immunologists, epidemiologists, pathologists, and clinicians. Areas of interest include infections caused by pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and parasites; mechanisms of pathogenicity and virulence factors such as toxins and microbial surface structures; factors involved in host resistance, inflammation, and susceptibility to infection; immunology of microbial infection; and development and evaluation of vaccines against pathogens.
