Virus Infection and Infectious Diseases: Unraveling Mechanisms, Innovations, and Therapeutic Strategies

Dear Colleagues,

Viruses constitute an abundant, highly diverse and economically significant group of pathogens affecting plants, animals and humans. Despite their minuscule size, viruses initiate extensive pathological changes or modifications in various host cells to ensure their survival.

The forthcoming Special Issue will publish a collection of the latest original research articles, short communications and reviews concerning recent progress in virus–host interaction research and therapeutic approaches for infectious diseases. The Special Issue aims to furnish a comprehensive platform for the exchange of knowledge and contributions, enriching the evolving landscape in this field.

Prof. Dr. Jung-Hyun Lee
Guest Editor
