Abstract
Genes and Immunity is a journal dedicated to functional genetics of the immune response. Emphasizing studies that demonstrate genetic, genomic or functional variation in the immune system, Genes and Immunity assists our understanding of how the basic control over the immune system varies between individuals both in health and disease.Keywords
