Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

The COVID-19 pandemic shook the world globally with dreadful implications, but also demonstrated an unprecedented collective response to the SARS-CoV-2 infection. To address global public health, this Special Issue will discuss the methods and approaches to illustrate and profile the immune response following infection and vaccination. 

We would like to invite you to share your work on vaccines and/or infection (both COVID-19 and other diseases), with an emphasis on immune response studies. 

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: 

  • The antibody response following vaccination.
  • Immune response following infection.
  • Role of number and dosage of vaccination in immune response.
  • The safety of vaccines.
  • Impact of monovalent vs bivalent vaccines.
  • Circulating and emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants. 

We look forward to receiving your contributions. 

Dr. Surender Khurana
Guest Editor
