蜱蟲和蜱傳疾病是一份國(guó)際同行評(píng)議的科學(xué)期刊。它出版原始的研究論文、簡(jiǎn)短的通訊、最先進(jìn)的微型評(píng)論、給編輯的信、臨床案例研究、有關(guān)國(guó)際會(huì)議的公告和社論。該雜志涵蓋范圍廣泛，匯集了各種學(xué)科，例如動(dòng)物學(xué)、微生物學(xué)、分子生物學(xué)、遺傳學(xué)、數(shù)學(xué)模型、獸醫(yī)學(xué)和人類醫(yī)學(xué)。多學(xué)科研究方法和(在實(shí)地和實(shí)驗(yàn)室)使用傳統(tǒng)和新的方法/方法對(duì)深入了解導(dǎo)致人類或動(dòng)物疾病的自然過程和人類行為/活動(dòng)以及蜱蟲和蜱媒病原體的經(jīng)濟(jì)影響至關(guān)重要。這種了解對(duì)以有效和環(huán)境可接受的方式管理蜱蟲種群和蜱蟲傳播的疾病至關(guān)重要。

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases is an international, peer-reviewed scientific journal. It publishes original research papers, short communications, state-of-the-art mini-reviews, letters to the editor, clinical-case studies, announcements of pertinent international meetings, and editorials.The journal covers a broad spectrum and brings together various disciplines, for example, zoology, microbiology, molecular biology, genetics, mathematical modelling, veterinary and human medicine. Multidisciplinary approaches and the use of conventional and novel methods/methodologies (in the field and in the laboratory) are crucial for deeper understanding of the natural processes and human behaviour/activities that result in human or animal diseases and in economic effects of ticks and tick-borne pathogens. Such understanding is essential for management of tick populations and tick-borne diseases in an effective and environmentally acceptable manner.
