Special Issue topic: VIRAL DISAESES IN AFRICA
JVS is pleased to announce its special issue for 2024 entitled VIRAL DISAESES IN AFRICA. This special issue aims to highlight the current state of knowledge and research on viral diseases in Africa. The continent is home to a diverse range of viral diseases, many of which are endemic and pose a significant challenge to one health.
In this special issue, we will focus on the latest research on viral diseases in Africa including human, animal, and plant viruses with a particular emphasis on emerging and re-emerging viral diseases. We welcome short communications, review articles, and original research submissions on topics such as epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and vaccines of viral diseases in Africa from all over the world. The first decision will be made within 2 weeks after submission.
Our goal is to provide an open-access platform for researchers to share their findings and contribute to the global effort to combat viral diseases and one health. Open-access article processing charges are 100 USD excluding taxes.
Briefs on Special Issue:
Deadline: 30 April 2024
Publication: soon after acceptance
Processing charges: 100 USD excluding taxes
Submission: online using following link (please choose "Special Issue: Africa" as field of research during online submission).

The Egyptian Society of Virology
Egyptian Society of Virology (ESV) was founded in 2000 in the Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Agriculture, Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt. It promotes the exchange of information in the domain of virology and stimulates collaboration between virologists in Egypt and internationally. ESV hosts an international conference every 2 years, and organizes seminars, workshops, and meetings on significant and emerging topics in the field of virology. The society also coordinates scientific research, dispatches proper knowledge to the community, and provides advice to the decision makers.
ESV is a multidisciplinary organization that provides a forum for all investigators on viruses of medical, veterinary, and plant importance. The main scope of ESV is to promote the advance in the art and science of virology and to stimulate virology education and training to all levels of beginners and specialists. ESV also encourages collaboration and information exchange with the different national and international scientific societies in virology and relevant fields of science. The administrative office of ESV is currently located in the Department of Virology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.
Journal of Virological Sciences (JVS), formerly known as Egyptian Journal of Virology, is the official journal of ESV. The journal was established in 2004 as a peer-reviewed, multi-disciplinary scientific journal that publishes original research on all aspects of human, animal, plant, insect, bacterial, and fungal viruses, and prions. JVS focuses on the molecular evolution of viruses, virus-host interactions, viral immunology, diagnostic virology, antiviral chemotherapy, and viral vaccines.
