Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In this Special Issue, we aim to feature early-career researchers in immunology. The senior author(s) of each contribution should be (a) the first or last author as well as the corresponding author and (b) within 10 years of completing their Ph.D. (or equivalent) or becoming an assistant professor/on the tenure track. We invite submissions from diverse research fields. Articles submitted for this Special Issue should meet all standard requirements of individual Biology articles (regarding quality, novelty, and significance) and be relevant to a broad international and interdisciplinary readership.

Authors contributing to this Special Issue will have the opportunity to be nominated for next year's Young Investigator Award.

Prof. Dr. Natalia Osna
