Biological Psychology
Biological Psychology publishes original scientific papers on neural, endocrine, immune, and other physiological aspects of psychological states and processes. Such aspects include assessments by biochemistry, electrophysiology, and neuroimaging during psychological experiments as well as biologically induced changes in psychological function. Psychological investigations based on biological theories are also of interest. All aspects of psychological functioning, including psychopathology, are germane.The Journal is focused on work with human individuals, but may consider work with animals, if conceptually related to issues in human biological psychology. The Journal welcomes work that spans disciplines and methods and recruits an editorial team that is especially suited for handling such manuscripts. Empirical reports are the core of the Journal, but methodological and theoretical reports relevant to biological psychology are encouraged (see list of article types for more information). Finally, the Journal regularly publishes special issues on selected topics within its scope.- ISSN: 0301-0511

It also publishes short population reports, which are tied to the allelefrequencies.ne... database, describing allele frequencies of HLA and KIR.The journal's scope includes understanding the genetic and functional mechanisms that distinguish human individuals in their immune responses to allografts, pregnancy, infections or vaccines as well as the immune responses that lead to autoimmunity, allergy or drug hypersensitivity. It also includes examining the distribution of the genes controlling these responses in populations.Research areas include: • Studies of the genetics, genomics, polymorphism, evolution, and population distribution of immune-related genes • Studies of the expression, structure and function of the products of immune-related genes • Immunogenetics of susceptibility to infectious and autoimmune disease, and allergy • The role of the immune-related genes in hematopoietic stem cell, solid organ, and vascularized composite allograft transplant • Histocompatibility studies including alloantibodies, epitope definition, and T cell alloreactivity • Studies of immunologic tolerance and pregnancy • T cell, B cell, NK and regulatory cell functions, particularly related to subjects within the journal's scope • Pharmacogenomics and vaccine development in the context of immune-related genesHuman Immunology considers immune-related genes to include those encoding classical and non-classical HLA, KIR, MIC, minor histocompatibility antigens (mHAg), immunoglobulins, TCR, BCR, proteins involved in antigen processing and presentation, complement, Fc receptors, chemokines and cytokines. Other immune-related genes may be considered.Human Immunology is also interested in bioinformatics of immune-related genes and organizational topics impacting laboratory processes, organ allocation, clinical strategies, and registries related to autoimmunity and transplantation.Orig... papers with new data will be given preference over uninvited reviews and meta-analyses.Origin... papers with new data will be given preference over uninvited reviews and meta-analyses.
