Top 10 Immunology and Allergy Journals In The World 2026

1. Nature Reviews Immunology

Immunology is a diverse and growing discipline that can be defined as the study of the tissues, cells and molecules involved in host defence mechanisms. Immunologists attempt to understand how the immune system develops, how the body defends itself against disease, and what happens when it all goes wrong. Nature Reviews Immunology provides in-depth coverage of all areas of immunology, from fundamental mechanisms to applied aspects.  Subjects Covered Allergy and asthma Autoimmunity Antigen processing and presentation Apoptosis and cell death Chemokines and chemokine more...

2. Immunity

Immunity publishes the most important advances in immunology research. We welcome studies that provide fundamental new immunological insights at the molecular, cellular, or whole organism level. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, cancer, infectious disease, neuroimmunology, autoimmune disease, allergy, mucosal immunity, metabolic disease, and homeostasis. more...

3. Science immunology

Science Immunology publishes original, peer-reviewed, science-based research articles that report critical advances in all areas of immunological research, including important new tools and techniques. The editors encourage submission of original research findings from all areas within the broad field of immunology from all model organisms, including humans. Areas covered range from basic studies into the biology of innate and adaptive immunity (immune cell development and differentiation, immunogenomics, systems immunology, structural immunology, antigen presentation, immunometabolism, and mucosal immunology) to immune contributions to more...

4. Annual Review of Immunology

The Annual Review of Immunology, in publication since 1983, focuses on basic immune mechanisms and molecular basis of immune diseases in humans. Topics include innate and adaptive immunity; immune cell development and differentiation; immune control of pathogens (viruses, bacteria, parasites) and cancer; and human immunodeficiency and autoimmune diseases. The current volume of this journal has been converted from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, with all articles published under a CC BY license. more...

5. Nature Immunology

Nature Immunology is a multidisciplinary journal that publishes papers of the highest quality and significance in all areas of immunology. Priority is given to work that provides translational and/or fundamental insight into the workings of the immune system. Areas covered include, but are not limited to, innate immunity and inflammation; development; immune receptors, signaling and apoptosis; antigen presentation; gene regulation and recombination; cellular and systemic immunity; vaccines; immune tolerance; autoimmunity; tumor immunology, and microbial immunopathology. more...

6. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases

nnals of the Rheumatic Diseases (ARD) is an international peer review journal committed to promoting the highest standards of scientific exchange and education. It covers all aspects of rheumatology, which includes the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions, arthritic disease, and connective tissue disorders. ARD publishes basic, clinical, and translational scientific research. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases is the flagship of BMJ’s rheumatology portfolio and has two companion journals: RMD Open for original research in rheumatology and musculoskeletal disorders and Lupus Science more...

7. The Lancet Rheumatology

The Lancet Rheumatology is committed to publishing content relevant to rheumatology specialists worldwide, with a focus on studies that advance clinical practice, challenge the status quo, and advocate change in health policy. With a strong clinical focus, we provide an independent voice for the rheumatology community and advocate strongly for the improved lives of patients with rheumatic diseases around the globe. We publish clinical research (with an emphasis on clinical trials), expert reviews, and provocative comment and opinion relating to the diagnosis more...

8. Cellular and Molecular Immunology

Cellular & Molecular Immunology is a monthly journal from the Chinese Society of Immunology and the University of Science and Technology of China. Covering both basic immunology research and clinical applications, Cellular & Molecular Immunology provides the latest information and advancements in our understanding of the immunological response of the host, both in vitro and in vivo. more...

9. Journal of Experimental Medicine

Journal of Experimental Medicine (JEM) is a broad journal that publishes papers providing novel conceptual insight into immunology, cancer biology, vascular biology, microbial pathogenesis, neuroscience, and stem cell biology. We are interested in original findings on all aspects of disease pathogenesis, and we are happy to consider papers reporting novel therapeutic approaches. We strongly encourage submissions of human studies. more...

10. Trends in Immunology

Trends in Immunology plays an essential role in monitoring advances in the various fields of immunology, bringing together the results in a readable and lucid form. The backbone of each issue is a series of succinct reviews and hypothesis-driven viewpoints. Together with the other sections of the magazine they give the reader a complete picture of the diverse field of immunology. This broad perspective makes Trends in Immunology an invaluable information source for researchers, lecturers and students alike. Trends in Immunology helps to link developments more...
