We are now entering the third decade of the 21st Century, and, especially in the last years, the achievements made by scientists have been exceptional, leading to major advancements in the fast-growing field of tropical diseases. Frontiers has organized this Research Topic to highlight the latest advancements in order to be at the forefront of science in different fields of research. This editorial initiative is focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, latest discoveries, recent advances and future perspectives in the areas of: major and emerging tropical diseases, tropical disease prevention and control policy, population ecology and socio-epidemiology of tropical diseases and vaccines for tropical diseases.
The Research Topic solicits brief, forward-looking contributions from the editorial board members of the Disease Prevention and Control Policy, Major Tropical Diseases, Emerging Tropical Diseases, Population Ecology and Socio-Epidemiology and Vaccines for Tropical Diseases sections. These should describe the state of the art, outlining recent developments and major accomplishments that have been achieved and that need to occur to move the field forward. Authors are encouraged to identify the greatest challenges in the sub-disciplines, and how to address those challenges.
The goal of this special edition Research Topic is to shed light on the progress made in the past decade in the field and on its future challenges. This article collection will inspire, inform and provide direction and guidance to researchers in the field.
