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.
