Note to Potential Authors
We recognize that excellent papers may have been erroneously rejected by other journals. We will reconsider papers that have been rejected by Nature, Science, Nature Medicine, Nature Immunology, Journal of Immunology and some other journals in the original format of those journals, thus saving the authors effort and time. The authors are encouraged to enclose the reviewers' and/or editorial comments from the above mentioned journals. This will certainly expedite the evaluation of the article and it is possible the article might be accepted based on its previous review. This will allow the urgent and competitive research to be published in a timely manner. You may submit your paper online or email it to the Editor-in-Chief.
HINARI
Landes Bioscience gladly participates in the World Health Organizations' Access to Research Initiative (HINARI) to provide free online access to all papers published in Self/Nonself to scientists in developing countries worldwide.
About Self/Nonself
Self/Nonself - Immune Recognition and Signaling is a multidisciplinary journal that publishes novel peer-reviewed findings in all areas of immunology ranging from molecular and structural immunology to immune imaging and therapy. Priority is given to work that provides fundamental insight into the workings of the immune system with a particular emphasis on the mechanisms underlying immune recognition and transmembrane signal transduction at the molecular, cell and functional level. Major criteria for acceptance are quality, originality, significance, clarity and conciseness.
