FEATURED OUTSTANDING OBSERVATIONS AND THEORETICAL ARTICLES
Spanning the breadth of immunology, Immunology & Cell Biology is proud to present Featured Outstanding Observations and Theoretical Articles - a collection of some of the top articles from recent years.
Outstanding Observations describe striking, reproducible observations that have extremely important conceptual implications but do not necessarily include insights into the underlying molecular mechanisms. Theoretical Articles are intended to challenge and provoke discussion in the international scientific community.
