Aims and Scope:
Immunology & Cell Biology is an international peer-reviewed journal that focuses on the general functioning of the immune system in its broadest sense, with a particular emphasis on its cell biology. Areas that are covered include but are not limited to:

  • Cellular immunology
  • Immune responses to pathogens
  • Immunopathology
  • Immunogenetics
  • Innate and adaptive immunity
  • Tumour immunology
  • Immunotherapy
  • Immunological studies in humans and model organisms (including mouse, rat, Drosophila, etc).

Immunology & Cell Biology has established an international reputation, built on more than 80 years of innovative publishing. The journal publishes peer-reviewed Original Articles and Short Communications that describe new research results as well as Methodological papers. Immunology & Cell Biology not accepts 'Outstanding Observation' articles, which allow rapid publication of influential discoveries about immunological phenomena, and 'Theoretical Articles', which challenge and provoke international scientific discussion.

Readership: Immunologists, molecular biologists, cell biologists and geneticists.
