Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases & Medical Microbiology

The Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases & Medical Microbiology (ISSN 1712-9532) is a peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal published by Hindawi in Canada, dedicated to advancing research in the fields of infectious diseases and medical microbiology. Published on a quarterly basis, the journal encompasses a broad spectrum of topics, including the study of infectious pathogens, antimicrobial agents, immunology, epidemiology, and clinical microbiology, with a particular emphasis on research that has direct implications for public health. While the publication maintains a moderate quality standard suitable for researchers seeking rapid dissemination of their work through an open-access model, it is currently not indexed in the Science Citation Index (SCI) and is classified as a Zone 4 journal in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) ranking for the medical sciences. Consequently, its impact factor remains relatively low and subject to annual fluctuations, reflecting a limited academic influence compared to top-tier specialized journals; therefore, authors are advised to carefully weigh these factors against their specific career and publication needs when considering submission.
