Nature Immunology is mainly concerned with subjects like Cell biology, Immunology, T cell, Immune system and Receptor. The studies in Cell biology featured incorporate elements of Cytotoxic T cell, Transcription factor, Cellular differentiation and Antigen. Cytotoxic T cell studies presented include Antigen-presenting cell, IL-2 receptor, Interleukin 21, Natural killer T cell and ZAP70.
The work tackled in it goes beyond the discipline of Interleukin 21 as it also encompasses Interleukin 12. Nature Immunology focused on Transcription factor research but expanded to cover Molecular biology. Inflammation, Innate immune system, Immunity, Acquired immune system and Cytokine are all subfields of Immunology research that were featured in the journal.
The research on T cell featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Cancer research and CD8.
The main points discussed in the published articles deal with Cell biology, Immunology, Immune system, T cell and Cytotoxic T cell. The studies on Cell biology discussed at the published articles can also contribute to research in the domains of Natural killer T cell, Receptor, Transcription factor and Cellular differentiation. While the journal papers focused on T cell, they were also able to explore topics like Molecular biology and CD8.
The main research concerns discussed in the journal are Cell biology, Immunology, Immune system, T cell and Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The subject of Transcription factor, which is connected to the field of Innate lymphoid cell, serves as the foundation of the Cell biology research featured in Nature Immunology. The journal addresses concerns in Immune system which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Neuroscience and Cytokine.
Cancer research, Tumor microenvironment, Reprogramming and CD8, Antigen are some topics wherein T cell research discussed in the journal have an impact. CD8 research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Cytotoxic T cell and Effector. While Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the focus of Nature Immunology, it also provided insights into the studies of Economic growth, Virology and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.
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 Nature Immunology (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 Nature Immunology (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, 11.69% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 29.90% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 11.27% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.51% of all publications and 34.31% 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.
