About this Research Topic
The recent COVID-19 pandemic as well as climate change led to a shift in respiratory virus epidemiology, while the plasticity and consequences of this remain unknown. Furthermore, more attention was drawn to pathogenesis aspects, which have been until then largely ignored. Due to the gigantic challenges posed to global healthcare systems around the world, research methods and models developed with unprecedented speed during the pandemic.
This research topic aims at highlighting interdisciplinary research approaches and collecting and promoting articles, that focus on emerging seasonality patterns of respiratory viruses, concepts regarding their pathogenesis, including long-term sequelae, diagnostic and research methodologies for their identification and characterization of host response, as well as research models and artificial intelligence concepts associated with the prediction of respiratory virus epidemiology and pathogenesis. Our index research topic addresses a range of healthcare professionals including infectious diseases specialists, microbiologists and virologists, epidemiologists, public health advocates as well as basic and translational researchers with an interest in this field.
Ultimately, the scope of this topic is to generate evidence on emerging concepts of respiratory viral infections, by assembling current knowledge and addressing potential gaps in research.
This Research Topic encourages the submission of any type of original research articles, method articles, protocols, systematic and narrative reviews, and meta-analyses that examine the role, the epidemiology, and the pathogenesis of viral infections in the post-pandemic era.
