Artificial Intelligence in Diagnostic, Clinical and Forensic Pathology
Journal of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology (PMI) invites submissions for its 2026 Focus Issue on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in pathology. We welcome both original research articles and comprehensive reviews that explore innovative uses of AI in diagnostic anatomic pathology, clinical pathology and forensic pathology.
Submissions (authored by humans) may address, but are not limited to:
- The integration of AI in resolving specific diagnostic challenges in pathology.
- Original investigations demonstrating the clinical utility and impact of AI-driven approaches.
- Critical analyses and systematic reviews assessing the strengths, limitations, and future challenges of implementing AI in pathology.

The Role of Human Gut Microbiota in Health and Disease
Journal of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology is proud to be part of a multi-journal collection on gut microbiota: “The Role of Human Gut Microbiota in Health and Disease”.
The collection aims to bring together cutting-edge research, and at the PMI Journal we are excited to showcase how a truly multidisciplinary journal like ours can contribute with high-quality research and expert reviews that strengthen knowledge and resources across fields.
Read more about both scope and objectives and topics of interest following the link below.
Call for mini-reviews
The PMI Journal welcomes submissions of mini-reviews, extending a special invitation to contributors where the initial draft has been generated by a junior scientist, such as a postdoctoral researcher, graduate student, or undergraduate student. This inclusive approach aims to foster the development and recognition of emerging talents in the scientific community.
Mini-reviews should be concise, summarizing new and emerging fields and be accessible to non-specialists.
Manuscript format:
- Approx. 3000 words (references not included)
