Aim & Scope
Infection & Chemotherapy (Infect Chemother) is an international, peer-reviewed, and open-access journal in English, which publishes the current research on issues posed by infectious diseases worldwide. This journal, which is published quarterly (on the last day of March, June, September, and December) in both print and online (https://icjournal.org) versions, is the only official publication of the Korean Society of Infectious Diseases (http://www.ksid.or.kr/), Korean Society for Antimicrobial Therapy (formerly Korean Society for Chemotherapy) (http://www.ksat.or.kr/), and the Korean Society for AIDS (http://www.kosaids.or.kr/). It publishes review articles, original articles, brief communications, correspondences, case reports, editorials, and special articles covering an extensive range of clinical descriptions on infectious diseases, public health issues, microbiology including emerging resistance, parasitology and immunity to microbes, current and novel treatments, and the promotion of optimal practices or guidelines for diagnoses and treatments. As the world continues to shrink as a result of globalization, it is necessary that appropriate communication is maintained among countries for timely sharing of information on infectious diseases. This is an important topic because such diseases tend to have unique biologic features according to the regions in which they develop, and these diseases can easily become niduses that may spread globally at any time. Based on these factors, the aim of this publication is to facilitate communication among societies and countries, enabling the worldwide sharing of information on infectious diseases. The scope of this journal is to link basic and clinical research in the field of infectious diseases, in reference to relevant evidence. The journal continuously attempts to publish current global and regional topics concerning infectious diseases and their diagnoses and managements to create awareness of related issues and link various developing and developed countries. Infection & Chemotherapy is indexed/tracked/covered by Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI), PubMed, PubMed Central, SCOPUS, Crossref and DOI, DOAJ, EMBASE, CAS, Google Scholar, CABI, KoreaMed, Synapse, KoMCI.
