Aims & Scope

Experimental Pathology encompasses the use of multidisciplinary scientific techniques to investigate the pathogenesis and progression of pathologic processes. The International Journal of Experimental Pathology - IJEP - publishes papers which afford new and imaginative insights into the basic mechanisms underlying human disease, including in vitro work, animal models, and clinical research. Aiming to report on work that addresses the common theme of mechanism at a cellular and molecular level, IJEP publishes both original experimental investigations and review articles. Recent themes for review series have covered topics as diverse as "Viruses and Cancer", "Granulomatous Diseases", "Stem cells" and "Cardiovascular Pathology".
