Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will comprise selected papers from the Proceedings of the 1st International Electronic Conference on Healthcare, which will be held from 1–30 October 2018 on sciforum.net (https://iech-1.sciforum.net/), an online platform for hosting scholarly e-conferences and discussion groups. In this 1st edition of the electronic conference, contributors were invited to provide papers and presentations from the field of healthcare, resulting in a wide variety of excellent submissions and topic areas. These papers will be peer reviewed and published with the aim of rapid and wide dissemination of research results, developments and applications. We hope this Conference Series will grow rapidly in the future and become recognized as a new way and venue by which to (electronically) present new developments related to the field of healthcare and their applications.

This Special Issue includes, but without being limited to the following six topics/sections:

  • Health Disparities
  • Microbiology, Immunology and Infectious Diseases in Humans
  • Public Health Systems
  • Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment
  • Alzheimer’s and Cognitive Disorders
  • Metabolic Diseases
