>The editors of the new journal Infection, Genetics and Evolution - the
>Journal of Molecular Epidemiology and Evolutionary Genetics in Infectious
>Diseases (MEEGID) are pleased to inform you that the first issue has now
>been published and can be freely accessed online.

>The genetics of hosts, pathogens and vectors have tended to develop as three
>separate fields of research. This artificial compartmentalisation is of
>concern due to our growing appreciation of the strong co-evolutionary
>interactions among hosts, pathogens and vectors. Infection, Genetics and
>Evolution aims to be the forum for this new exciting and badly needed
>discipline.
>
>The organisation of the sixth MEEGID Conference (Paris, July 24-27, 2002 ,
>co-sponsored by the CDC in Atlanta, the Pasteur Institute and the CNRS) and
>the successful establishment of a new society already testify to the success
>of this formula.
>
>The TDR community is encouraged to participate in these new developments and
>either submit or read the journal,  participate in the forthcoming meetings,
>or simply join the society to play a more active role. We hope you will join
>in great numbers!

>Further information on the new journal is available at
>http://cepm.mpl.ird.fr. If you click on the journal title, you can register
>for free online access (first four issues will be free; second year will be
>decided later). For information on the next MEEGID meeting, the new society
>or the society journal, please email Michel.Tibayrenc at mpl.ird.fr.
