Focus

Scientific Journal of Dermatology and Venereology  is a peer-reviewed, international journal. Its primary aim is to disseminate high-quality, original research that advances the scientific understanding and clinical practice of dermatology and venereology. The journal serves as a critical forum for academics, clinicians, and researchers, publishing studies with a diverse geographical focus, including work from Asia , Africa , and South America.

The journal's scope is comprehensive, encompassing all facets of cutaneous medicine and biology. Scientific Journal of Dermatology and Venereology welcomes the submission of manuscripts across key sub-specialties, including, but not limited to:

Inflammatory Dermatoses: Investigations into the genetics, pathophysiology, and epidemiology of chronic inflammatory conditions such as psoriasis (including GWAS) , atopic dermatitis , and acne vulgaris.

Infectious Dermatology: Research on the molecular epidemiology, pathogenesis, and treatment of cutaneous infections. This includes medical mycology (e.g., Tinea pedis) , virology (e.g., Monkeypox virus) , and bacteriology (e.g., Staphylococcus epidermidis and its role in acne).

Dermato-oncology: Population-based and epidemiological studies on the incidence, prevention, and risk factors associated with skin cancers, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).

Basic and Translational Science: Foundational research in cutaneous biology, such as investigations into skin barrier function , stratum corneum hydration , and the role of the skin microbiome (metagenomics).

Clinical and Experimental Therapeutics: Rigorous clinical trials evaluating novel interventions, such as dietary supplementation (e.g., polyphenols) , moisturizers , and basic pharmacology studies on natural extracts (e.g., Annona squamosa).

Epidemiology and Public Health: Studies focusing on environmental and occupational dermatology, including the analysis of lifestyle factors, risk factors in industrial settings, and the impact of climate on skin health.

Molecular Dermatology: Advanced molecular studies utilizing comparative genomics, phylogenetic analysis, and immunogenetics to unravel the genetic landscape of skin diseases.
