Public Health and Epidemiology
About
Web-based co-creation and collaboration offer public health the opportunity to share, in real time, critical information on emerging diseases and disease surveillance. Sharing information on the genomic structure of organisms advances molecular epidemiology and how to address global healthcare needs that can significantly contribute to social change and drive public health law and policy on a worldwide scale.

| mBio |
| An American Society For Microbiology (ASM) Access Publication |
| Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy |
| Publicationfeatures interdisciplinary studies that build our understanding of the underlying mechanisms and therapeutic applications of antimicrobial and antiparasitic agents and chemotherapy. |
| Applied and Environmental Microbiology |
| Publication publishes papers that make significant contributions to (a) applied microbiology, including biotechnology, protein engineering, bioremediation, and food microbiology, (b) microbial ecology, including environmental, organismic, and genomic microbiology, and (c) interdisciplinary microbiology, including invertebrate microbiology, plant microbiology, aquatic microbiology, and geomicrobiology. |
| Eukaryotic Cell |
| Publication presents the latest findings from basic research studies of simple eukaryotic microorganisms such as yeasts, filamentous fungi, parasitic protozoa, ciliates, social amoebae, algae, and other protists. The journal reports basic research studies involving genetic, genomic, biochemical, molecular, and cell biological analysis, virulence studies of host-pathogen interactions, and population genetics and evolutionary/phylogenetic studies for eukaryotic microbes. |
| Hypertension Journal |
| Journal of Bacteriology |
| publishes important results from a wide range of topics, which include structure and function, biochemistry, enzymology, metabolism and its regulation, molecular biology, genetics, plasmids and transposons, general microbiology, plant microbiology, chemical and physical characterization of microbial structures and products, and basic biological properties of organisms. |
| Journal of Clinical Microbiology |
| Publication of the most current research related to the laboratory diagnosis of human and animal infections and the role of the laboratory in both the management of infectious diseases and the elucidation of the epidemiology of infections. |
| Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews |
| Publication keeps researchers current with the latest developments in microbiology as well as related fields such as immunology and molecular and cellular biology. Review articles explore the significance and the interrelationships of the latest discoveries that build our understanding of bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and other higher eukaryotes. |
| Molecular and Cellular Biology |
| Publication features significant discoveries in cellular morphology and function, genome organization, regulation of genetic expression, morphogenesis, and somatic cell genetics. The journal also examines viral systems, publishing papers that emphasize their impact on the cell. |
