Coronaviruses

Coronaviruses are important human and animal pathogens, with several acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus being prominent examples. The chapters included in this volume review our current understanding of important aspects of coronavirus biology and pathogenesis, including virus-host interactions, and they give an overview of new strategies in the development of vaccines and antivirals suitable to combat coronavirus infections. This book should be useful to academic researchers, and their students, as well as clinicians with an interest in coronavirus-related diseases and the biology of these viruses.
