The ScienceOpen Point-of-Care Testing for Infectious Diseases Super Collection presents a curated collection of articles on cutting-edge research and innovation in the field of rapid diagnostic tests and point-of-care testing. Established in order to share information, promote advancement in the field, and tackle existing challenges, the Super Collection highlights relevant papers in the fields of:
HIV, Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), Tuberculosis (TB), Hepatitis, Sexually-Transmitted Infections (STIs) and Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs)
The Super Collection includes research ranging from evaluations and pilot studies to impact studies, clinical trials, cost-effectiveness analyses, and qualitative studies. The Super Collection will grow over time in collaboration with experts in the field.
The Point-of-Care Testing for Infectious Diseases Super Collection focuses on highly cited journal articles and review papers published since 2006. Older publications may be included if they are of seminal character. The Editors welcome suggestions from readers about papers to include in the individual collections; any content with a doi may be added.
HIV Self-Testing is a curated collection promoting articles in self-testing for HIV, including cutting-edge research and innovations in rapid diagnostic testing, as well as feasibility and acceptability evaluations.
