The Editorial Board of Majalah Kedokteran Bandung (MKB) hereby announces an update to the journal’s Focus and Scope. This revised scope will be implemented starting from 2026 onward.

Majalah Kedokteran Bandung (MKB) is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes research in tropical, infectious, and biomedical sciences, with an emphasis on the translational and clinical relevance of experimental findings.

The journal welcomes manuscripts in (but not limited to) the following areas:

• Infectious and tropical diseases, including emerging and re-emerging infections, antimicrobial resistance, tuberculosis, dengue, vector-borne diseases, and zoonotic diseases.
• Experimental and natural product–based biomedical research, focusing on bioactive compounds, herbal or marine products, in vitro and in vivo studies, cellular and molecular mechanisms, and pharmacological evaluations with therapeutic or translational potential.
• Clinical and translational medicine, encompassing diagnostic approaches, disease mechanisms, clinical management, biomarkers, treatment outcomes, and therapy evaluation relevant to tropical, subtropical, and low- and middle-income country settings—particularly in resource-limited environments.
• Public health, epidemiology, and behavioral medicine, addressing disease prevention, community health, and behavioral aspects in tropical and subtropical regions.

We invite researchers, clinicians, and public health professionals to submit their high-quality work and support MKB in advancing impactful medical research.
