Immunological Medicine

Aims & Scope

Immunological Medicine is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing high quality original research on a fully Open Access publication model.

Immunological Medicine , previously known as the Japanese Journal of Clinical Immunology ( Nippon Rinsho Men-eki Gakkai Kaishi), is the official journal of the Japanese Society of Clinical Immunology (JSCI).

Moving away from its previous medium of paper publication, the journal is now fully Online-only.

Recent progress in the field of clinical immunology has been remarkable.

Many diseases and conditions, including autoimmune diseases, allergy-related diseases, infectious diseases, malignant diseases, immunodeficiency and transplantation-related conditions are associated with immunological abnormalities and require immunological approaches from various medical fields.

Clinical immunology plays an increasingly important role as the bridge between basic research and clinical practice, with the significance of translational research rapidly increasing in recent years.

Considering such developments, the Society aims to publish an international and interdisciplinary journal for dissemination to a global audience.

Immunological Medicine encourages the submission of original manuscripts covering a wide range of topics such as rheumatology, allergology, oncology, hematology, cardiology, neurology, respiratory medicine, gastroenterology, nephrology, dermatology, pediatrics and other medical topics that relate to both basic and clinical immunology.
