About this Research Topic
This series aims to shed light on contemporary and emerging views in Virus and Host through in-depth perspective articles. We seek submissions that offer insightful analysis, forward-thinking viewpoints, and critical evaluations of current theories and their applications in Virus and Host research. Contributions may dissect the strengths, weaknesses, and potential future developments of current conceptual approaches or research methodologies. We encourage authors to explore not only advances in understanding interactions between viruses and their human hosts, but also theoretical frameworks and interpretive paradigms shaping the discipline.
The perspective pieces that will be published in this collection should provide valuable insights that provoke thoughtful discussion, inspire future research, and challenge existing paradigms. Submissions may include discussions on the evolution of theories in Virus and Host research, debates on controversial viewpoints, or predictions about future directions in understanding Virus and Host -related phenomena. Articles that propose novel syntheses of existing perspectives or suggest innovative applications of theoretical and practical insights across different contexts are particularly welcome.
Each submission will be rigorously peer-reviewed with an emphasis on originality and insight. The perceived impact and relevance of the discussion to ongoing and future research will be considered critical. In this Research Topic we welcome Perspective Articles and Mini Reviews.
Perspective Articles: Insightful discussions that challenge existing viewpoints, propose new theories, or provide integrative reviews on the current state and future directions of Virus and Host research.
Mini Reviews: provide concise summaries of current research developments, discussing different perspectives, research gaps, and future trends in Virus and Host research.
This Research Topic is an integral part of the Perspectives in Cellular and Infection Microbiology series. Only 'Perspective Articles' and 'Mini Reviews'
