期刊介绍:
Genes and Immunity is dedicated to presenting functional immunogenetics, understanding how this new field controls the immune system to maintain health and defining its role in disease development, progression and severity. The journal provides a new forum for research in immunobiology, bringing together studies which focus on the role of genetic, genomic and functional diversity in determining normal and abnormal immunological function. Genes and Immunity emphasizes the emergence of functional immunogenetics and genomics and their role in understanding the immune system and the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases, including autoimmunity, infectious diseases, chronic inflammatory disorders and malignancy.
