Gut Pathogens launched in 2009 and its growth has followed the fast-paced developments of the field in the last 10 years, from probiotics to bacterial genomics, to the rise of microbiome research. Dr. Niyaz Ahmed, Editor-in-Chief, tells us more about the success stories.
Featured article: Occurrence of Escherichia coli and faecal coliforms in drinking water at source and household point-of-use in Rohingya camps, Bangladesh
A new study supported by UNICEF, reveals high levels of contamination of source water from tubewells and household drinking water in Rohingya camps in Bangladesh. Findings suggest that secondary contamination may occur due to inadequate hygienic practices, and call for measures to raise awareness among people in camps. You can also read more about the research in this author’s blog.

Call for papers: Diarrheagenic gut viruses and viral hepatitis
Gut Pathogens aims at building a critical knowledge base around viral agents associated with diarrheal diseases and human hepatitis viruses (A, E, C, B and D). This special collection is calling for papers such as authoritative reviews, commentaries and front-line research works from renowned and notable research groups active in this area. Read more
Call for papers: cross-journal series
Aims and scope
Gut Pathogens publishes research on both biological and clinical aspects of the pathogens, commensals and functional microbiota of the gut, including probiotic bacteria and yeasts and their products. The journal also considers timely reports on the novel aspects of genomics, metagenomics, microbiota profiling and systems biology, as well as studies identifying new genome sequences of gut microbes.
