Medical Immunology
Medical Immunology is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal that publishes articles on all topics relevant to the immune system and human disease.
Medical Immunology is aimed towards the fields of medicine and immunology; manuscripts covering topics relating to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases that involve the immune system are welcome. Specifically, those including allergy, autoimmunity, bone marrow transplantation, cancer immunology, immunodeficiencies, infectious diseases, inflammatory disorders, and organ transplantation. Contributions that focus on diagnostic, therapeutic and prophylactic modalities are all relevant, as is in vitro experimentation, pre-clinical animal experimentation, and patient-oriented clinical research.
Medical Immunology was conceived to fill the large divide between the science of basic immunology and the application of this scientific knowledge to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases of the immune system. The immune system has only become recognized and defined within the last century, with most of our present understanding acquired only within the past 20 years. Consequently, most of what we know about the immune system has only come into being within the professional lifetimes of the practicing medical community. With this recent explosion of knowledge, there simply has not been enough time for the translation to clinical medicine. Moreover, many basic immunologists know little of the concerns of clinical medicine. Thus, Medical Immunology was conceived to provide a forum for the translation of the language of modern immunology to medicine, one that is open to all, so that eventually patients, scientists and clinicians can all understand one another, and can learn about the latest discoveries in “real time”.
