由自然出版集團出版。ISSN: 1466 - 4879。《基因與免疫》致力于介紹功能性免疫遺傳學(xué)，了解這一新領(lǐng)域如何控制免疫系統(tǒng)以維持健康，并定義其在疾病發(fā)展、進(jìn)展和嚴(yán)重程度中的作用。該雜志為免疫生物學(xué)的研究提供了一個新的論壇，匯集了遺傳學(xué)、基因組學(xué)和功能多樣性在確定正常和異常免疫功能中的作用的研究。基因與免疫強調(diào)功能免疫遺傳學(xué)和基因組學(xué)的出現(xiàn)，以及它們在理解免疫系統(tǒng)和免疫介導(dǎo)疾病(包括自體免疫、傳染病、慢性炎癥和惡性腫瘤)的發(fā)病機制方面的作用。

Published by Nature Publishing Group. ISSN: 1466-4879.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.
