From pulsenetafrica at lists.wits.ac.za Thu Jun 8 12:22:07 2017 From: pulsenetafrica at lists.wits.ac.za (pulsenetafrica at lists.wits.ac.za) Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2017 10:22:07 +0000 Subject: [PulseNet Africa] Special edition of AJLM on antimicrobial resistance Message-ID: Hi All Please see the call from AJLM for a special issue which I have been invited to guest edit, on antimicrobial resistance focused on Africa and consider submitting your research? Note the call is extremely wide (not confined to bacteriology). There would be no publication charges associated, the journal is open access and articles will be peer reviewed (win-win-win). It would be great to seem a submission from PulseNet Africa of molecular epidemiology of multidrug resistant isolates. Further details can be found in the link to the journal website below. Please note that NO articles can be accepted by contacting me directly and you would need to go through normal journal submission procedures. Regards Karen H.
