Seminars in Immunology is a review journal dedicated to keeping scientists informed of developments in immunology on a topic-by-topic basis. Each issue is thematic in approach, devoted to an important topic of interest to immunologists, and focuses on recent advances across a broad spectrum of research, from the molecular and cellular basis of the immune response to the possibilities for its manipulation. Every issue is edited by a guest editor and contains six to eight authoritative invited reviews on different aspects of the subject area.
