Abstract:
|
Images for the cover of Emerging Infectious Diseases are selected for artistic quality, technical reproducibility, stylistic continuity, communication effectiveness, and audience appeal. The images, which are published with permission of the artists or other copyright holders, are drawn from many cultures, historical periods (ancient to contemporary), and geographic areas.EID seeks for its cover images and their accompanying essays to evoke compassion for human suffering, expand the science reader's literary or artistic scope, provide context related to the theme assigned to the issue, and link the art with public health and science. Although accurate scientific information should be mentioned in About the Cover essays, these are not research articles.
