Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Special Issue Introduction: In 2022, the 12th volume of our journal Animals was published. Thanks to our readers, innumerable authors, anonymous peer reviewers, editors, and all the people working in some way for the journal who have joined their efforts for years, the journal IF has reached 3.231.
To highlight another consecutive year of excellence, and to give a good start to the year, a Special Issue entitled "Animals in 2023" is being launched. This Special Issue collects high-quality original research and review articles in all areas of interest covered by Animals. The Special Issue aims to collect papers of our editors-in-chief, editorial board members, guest editors, societies, authors, and reviewers from Animals. The submission deadline will be 31 March 2023. We kindly encourage all research groups to contribute up-to-date results from the latest development in their respective laboratories.
Dr. Andrea Pezzuolo
Prof. Dr. Clive J. C. Phillips
Guest Editors
