A Theme Issue on Infectious Disease and Immunology—Call for Papers
To focus the attention of the medical community on novel research and to provide clinicians with new information on infectious diseases and immunologic disorders, JAMA will publish a theme issue devoted to these topics, and nearly all of the family of JAMA/Archives journals also will publish theme issues or devote pages to these topics in April 2011.
Authors are invited to submit manuscripts on any topic relevant to the biology, etiology, epidemiology, prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of infectious diseases and immunological disorders. Manuscripts received before December 1, 2010, will have the best chance of consideration for inclusion in the JAMA theme issue on infectious disease and immunology.
