Call for papers/Topics

Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:

1. Foundational Sciences

These subjects provide the essential biological and chemical understanding required across all three fields.

• Anatomy & Physiology: Comparative anatomy (differences between species) and systemic physiology.
• Biochemistry & Molecular Biology: Metabolic pathways, genetic expression, and cellular function.
• Microbiology & Immunology: Bacteriology, virology, mycology, and the body’s defense mechanisms.
• Pathology: The study of disease processes, cell injury, and tissue repair.
• Pharmacology: Pharmacokinetics ($PK$) and pharmacodynamics ($PD$), toxicology, and drug interactions.

2. Nursing Sciences

Nursing focuses on the holistic care of the patient, clinical management, and the human response to health conditions.

• Clinical Nursing Specialties:
  • Medical-Surgical Nursing
  • Critical Care & Emergency Nursing
  • Pediatric & Neonatal Nursing
  • Geriatric Nursing
  • Obstetric & Gynecological Nursing
• Nursing Theory & Ethics: Patient advocacy, nursing models (e.g., Orem, Nightingale), and bioethics.
• Community & Public Health Nursing: Health promotion, disease prevention, and home health care.
• Nursing Informatics: Managing data and technology to improve patient outcomes.

3. Medical Sciences

Medicine focuses primarily on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human disease.

• Internal Medicine: Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Nephrology, and Pulmonology.
• Surgical Sciences: General surgery, Orthopedics, Neurosurgery, and Anesthesiology.
• Diagnostic Sciences: Radiology (imaging), Hematology, and Clinical Chemistry.
• Psychiatry & Behavioral Health: Mental health disorders and psychotherapy.
• Preventive Medicine: Epidemiology and lifestyle medicine.

4. Veterinary Sciences

Veterinary medicine addresses the health of all non-human animal species, from pets to livestock and wildlife.

• Small Animal Medicine: Canines, felines, and avian/exotic pets.
• Large Animal & Production Medicine: Equine, bovine, porcine, and small ruminants (sheep/goats).
• Veterinary Surgery: Soft tissue, orthopedic, and specialized equine surgery.
• Zoological & Wildlife Medicine: Conservation medicine and rehabilitation.
• Theriogenology: Animal reproduction and obstetrics.

5. Interrelated Topics

The modern scientific community increasingly views these fields as a single ecosystem known as One Health.

• Zoonotic Diseases: Diseases that jump from animals to humans (e.g., Rabies, Avian Flu, Ebola).
• Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR): How antibiotic use in both livestock and human medicine affects global drug efficacy.
• Comparative Medicine: Using animal models to understand human diseases and vice-versa.
• Epidemiology & Biostatistics: Tracking disease outbreaks across populations (human or animal).
• Bioethics & Animal Welfare: The ethics of clinical trials, animal testing, and end-of-life care.
• Global Health Security: Food safety, food security, and international health regulations.
