About the Journal of Human and Animal Intestines
Advancing intestinal health research through rigorous peer review and open access dissemination of cutting-edge discoveries in gastroenterology, colorectal disease, and comparative intestinal pathology.
Our Mission
JHAI is dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary dialogue that advances understanding of intestinal physiology, pathology, and therapeutics. We prioritize research that:
Clarifies disease mechanisms: From molecular pathways in inflammatory bowel syndrome to systemic effects of gut dysbiosis.
Improves diagnostic precision: Through novel biomarkers, imaging modalities, and pathologic classification systems.
Enhances treatment efficacy: By evaluating pharmacological, surgical, and dietary interventions across clinical and preclinical models.
Bridges species divides: Recognizing that comparative studies in animal models inform human health, and vice versa.
Core Research Areas
- Inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis)
- Colorectal cancer: pathogenesis, screening, and treatment
- Pediatric gastroenterology and developmental disorders
- Intestinal microbiome and host-microbe interactions
- Abdominal and gastrointestinal surgery techniques
- Pathologic diagnosis and histopathological classification
- Veterinary intestinal diseases and comparative pathology
- Nutrition, diet, and intestinal health outcomes

"I was impressed by the swift services of the journal and easy navigation beginning from manuscript submission to galley proof. I would recommend future authors — 'Consider this journal if you are wondering where to publish your scientific work.' They are Google Scholar indexed and so you do not have to worry if your scientific work won't reach the community of other researchers."
Long Island University
"The positive editorial attitude and cooperation were encouraging and supportive of the author. Moreover, the fast response and processing of the manuscript reflect an appreciation of the time factor. In addition to the user-friendly submission system that allows for up-to-date follow-up. The review process is performed in a reasonable time with constructive comments that aim to improve the paper quality. Communication in such a way between the authors and the journals is not something that is common nowadays."
