Welcome to the Future of Human Immunity Research

The Journal of Human Immunity (JHI) is publishing its first articles in spring 2025. The International Alliance for Primary Immunodeficiency Societies (IAPIDS) and Rockefeller University Press (RUP) have entered a partnership to launch JHI, the official open access journal of IAPIDS. This collaboration will ensure that JHI emerges as the destination for exciting research into human immunity, with a particular focus on inborn errors of immunity.

SCOPE

JHI will publish papers that provide novel insights into the physiology and pathology of human immunity through the study of genetic defects and their phenocopies, including the study of leukocytes and other cells. The journal focuses on human inborn errors of immunity, encompassing conditions as diverse as infection, autoimmunity, autoinflammation, malignancy, and allergy.

Look forward to original research articles, reviews, letters, editorials, and commentaries.
