Immunology and Cell Biology tackles a plethora of topics, such as Immunology, Immune system, Antigen, Cell biology and Virology. The journal focused on Immunology research but expanded to cover Cytotoxic T cell. Many of the studies tackled connect Cytotoxic T cell with a similar field of study like CD8.
Immune system research is concerned with Acquired immune system in particular. The research on Antigen discussed in Immunology and Cell Biology draws on the closely related field of Molecular biology. Immunology and Cell Biology connects the study in Cell biology with the closely related area of Receptor.
Virology research discussed connects with the study of Microbiology.
The most cited publications primarily focus on research topics in Immunology, Immune system, Cell biology, Antigen and Virology. Aside from discussions in Cell biology, the published articles also deal with the subject of Cytotoxic T cell which intersects with CD8 disciplines. The journal publications explore topics in Antigen which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Molecular biology and Adjuvant.
The main research concerns discussed in Immunology and Cell Biology are Immune system, Immunology, Cell biology, T cell and Inflammation. Cytotoxic T cell and Cell are some topics wherein Immune system research discussed in it have an impact. Immunology and Disease are closely related fields of research discussed in Immunology and Cell Biology.
In Immunology and Cell Biology, Receptor, Innate immune system, Macrophage and Cellular differentiation are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Cell biology research. It explores topics in Inflammation which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Tumor necrosis factor alpha and Interleukin. The research on CD8 tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of CD5, Microbiology and NOD mice.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Immunology and Cell Biology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Immunology and Cell Biology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 2.94% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 33.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.07% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.15% of all publications and 44.44% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)For those interested in healthcare but not pursuing a traditional medical degree, several online programs offer valuable alternatives. For example, online sonography programs provide training to become skilled ultrasound technicians, an essential role in diagnostic imaging.
Similarly, aspiring radiology professionals can explore online rad tech programs, which offer affordable pathways to certification and employment in medical imaging departments.
Nutrition and wellness also offer promising careers, with numerous options available through dietetics masters programs. These programs focus on the science of food and its impact on health, preparing graduates for roles in clinical and community settings.
For quicker entry into healthcare support roles, medical assistant programs provide accessible online classes, often with financial aid, to help students gain the necessary skills to assist in clinics and hospitals effectively.
Exploring these related online degrees can offer flexible and cost-effective ways to build a meaningful healthcare career beyond traditional medicine.
