The Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology (JNIP) is the peer-reviewed journal of the Society on NeuroImmune Pharmacology. JNIP interfaces the disciplines of immunology, pharmacology and experimental neuroscience by acting as a platform for research discoveries into the pathogenesis and pharmacology of nervous system disorders affecting the immune system and vice versa. Original interdisciplinary scientific contributions, concise 'opinion,' and broad reviews are welcome. Research areas reporting in JNIP include receptor cell signaling, the pathobiology, cognitive neuroscience, psychopharmacology and immunity of drugs of abuse, neurodegenerative disorders, neurovirology, neuroimmunology, and neuropharmacology. Manuscripts must include original research linked to the immunology and pharmacology of human neurologic and neuropsychiatric disorders including substance abuse, depression, psychosis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Multiple Sclerosis, HIV-associated neurocognitive diso

The Journal of Neuroimmunology affords a forum for the publication of works applying immunologic methodology to the furtherance of the neurological sciences. Studies on all branches of the neurosciences, particularly fundamental and applied neurobiology, neurology, neuropathology, neurochemistry, neurovirology, neuroendocrinology, neuromuscular research, neuropharmacology and psychology, which involve either immunologic methodology (e.g. immunocytochemistry) or fundamental immunology (e.g. antibody and lymphocyte assays), are considered for publication.Works pertaining to multiple sclerosis, AIDS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Guillain Barré Syndrome, myasthenia gravis, and brain tumors form a major focus. The scope of the Journal is broad, covering both research and clinical problems of neuroscientific interest.A major aim of the Journal is to encourage the development of immunologic approaches to analyse in further depth the interactions and specific properties of nervous tissue elements during development and disease.

Journal of Neuroinflammation is ready to receive manuscripts on all aspects of innate immunological responses of the central nervous system.

The primary constituency of the Journal of Parasitic Diseases is parasitology. It publishes original research papers (pure, applied and clinical), which contribute significantly to any area of parasitology. Research papers on various aspects of cellular and molecular parasitology are welcome.

Journal of Parasitology Research is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles, review articles, and clinical studies in all areas of parasitology.

Journal of Pathogens is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles, review articles, and clinical studies related to all aspects of pathogens.

The aim of APMIS is to publish original research in the fields of pathology, microbiology and immunology, and from related developing areas of modern biomedicine. APMIS has subscribers worldwide.

Affiliated with the European Society of Reproductive Immunology and with the International Society for Immunology of Reproductionthe International Society for Immunology of ReproductionThe aim of the Journal of Reproductive Immunology is to provide the critical forum for the dissemination of results from high quality research in all aspects of experimental, animal and clinical reproductive immunobiology.This encompasses normal and pathological processes of:* Male and Female Reproductive Tracts* Gametogenesis and Embryogenesis* Implantation and Placental Development* Gestation and Parturition* Mammary Gland and Lactation.Including:* Infectious disease, including STDs* Inflammation* Autoimmunity* Mucosal Immunology* Cytokines and Other Immune Mediators* Immunoendocrinology* Reproductive Immunotherapies* Immunogenetics* Developmental Immunology* Immunology of Reproductive Cancers* Application of Immunological Techniques in Eluciation of Reproductive Processes or Dysfunction.The international character of the Journal is reflected in the breadth of its Editorial Board and commitment to publish new and outstanding studies in different aspects of reproductive immunobiology from all five continents. Within the Journal, the Editors wish to bridge the gap between basic and clinical studies in all subareas of research relevant to reproductive immunobiology.

The Journal of Theoretical Biology is the leading forum for theoretical perspectives that give insight into biological processes. It covers a very wide range of topics and is of interest to biologists in many areas of research, including:• Cell Biology• Developmental Biology• Ecology• Evolution• Immunology• Infectious Diseases• Mathematical Modeling, Statistics, and Data Bases• Medical Sciences and Plant Pathology• Microbiology, Molecular Biology, and Biochemistry• PhysiologyPlease note that the biological significance of the problem being studied should be clearly stated.Acceptable papers are those that bear significant importance on the biology being presented, and not on the mathematical analysis, per se. Papers that include some data will be considered, including those that contain comparative study, statistical data analysis, mathematical proof, computer simulations, experiments, field observations, or even philosophical arguments, which are all methods to support or reject theoretical ideas. However, there should be a concerted effort to make papers intelligible to biologists in the chosen field.Highly speculative papers not based on current biological knowledge will not be accepted. Also not acceptable are papers in which only mathematics is utilized, or standard statistical methods are applied to existing genomic data, without new theoretical perspective or biologically novel insight.Comment on theoretical issues or on papers published in the journal is welcomed in the form of Letters to the Editors.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
