Tropical Infectious Diseases

Infectious diseases kill more than 14 million people each year, 90% of whom live in the developing world. In this series of articles - which will appear in Nature Reviews Microbiology throughout 2003 and 2004 - we focus on the biology of infectious diseases that disproportionally affect poor and marginalized populations. This series will also examine the strategies being developed to contain and, ultimately, eradicate these diseases.

The 'Tropical Infectious Disease' article series has been developed in collaboration with the WHO/TDR.
