Tuberculosis is a speciality journal focusing on basic experimental research on tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis aims to publish original research and reviews. It publishes articles on host response and immunology of tuberculosis and the molecular biology, genetics and physiology of the organism.

Submissions on bacteriological, immunological and pathogenesis aspects of the disease are particularly welcomed.

The journal publishes topics including:

• Clinical Trials
• Diagnostics
• Antimicrobial resistance
• Immunology
• Leprosy
• Microbiology, including microbial physiology
• Molecular epidemiology
• Non-tuberculous Mycobacteria
• Pathogenesis & Pathology
• Vaccine development

Tuberculosis discourages submissions with a meta-analytical focus (eg, articles based on searches of published articles in public electronic databases, especially where there is lack of evidence of the personal involvement of authors in the generation of such material).

Tuberculosis does not accept case report submissions or clinical case studies. You can submit manuscripts of this type to the companion journals IDCases and Clinical Microbiology Newsletter.
