The field has undoubtedly received impetus from the considerable advances recently made in the understanding of the structure, biochemistry, and biology of viruses, bacteria, fungi, and other parasites. Another contributing factor is our improved knowledge of immune responsesand otheradaptiveor constitutive mechanisms bywhichhostsreact to infection. Furthermore, recombinant DNA technology, monoclonal antibodies, and othernewer methodologies have provided the technical tools for examining questions previously considered too complex tobe successfullytackled.Themost important incentiveof all isprobably the regenerated ideathatinfection might be theinitiating event inmanyclinical entities presently classifiedasidiopathic orof uncertain origin. Infectious pathogenesis research holds greatpromise. As moreinformationis uncovered,itis becoming increasingly apparent that our present knowledge ofthe pathogenic potential of infectious agents is often limited to the most noticeable effects,which sometimes represent only the tip ofthe iceberg. For example, it is nowwell appreciated that pathologic processes caused by infectious agents may emerge clinically after an incubation of decades and may result from genetic, immunologic, and other indirect routes more than from the infecting agent in itself.Thus,thereisageneral expectation that continued investigationwillleadto the isolation ofnew agentsofinfection,theidentification of hitherto unsuspected etiologic correlations, and, eventually, more effectiveapproaches to prevention and therapy. Studies on the mechanisms ofdiseasecausedby infectious agents demanda breadthofunderstandingacrossmanyspecializedareas,aswellasmuch coopera- ix
