The International Journal for Experimental and Clinical Reproductive ImmunobiologyAffilia... with the European Society of Reproductive Immunology and with the International Society for Immunology of Reproduction and the Japanese Society for Immunology of ReproductionThe aim of the Journal of Reproductive Immunology is to provide the critical forum for the dissemination of results from high quality research in all aspects of experimental, animal and clinical reproductive immunobiology.This encompasses normal and pathological processes of: * Male and Female Reproductive Tracts * Gametogenesis and Embryogenesis * Implantation and Placental Development * Gestation and Parturition * Mammary Gland and Lactation.Including: * Infectious disease, including STDs * Inflammation * Autoimmunity * Mucosal Immunology * Cytokines and Other Immune Mediators * Immunoendocrinology * Reproductive Immunotherapies * Immunogenetics * Developmental Immunology * Immunology of Reproductive Cancers * Application of Immunological Techniques in Eluciation of Reproductive Processes or Dysfunction.The international character of the Journal is reflected in the breadth of its Editorial Board and commitment to publish new and outstanding studies in different aspects of reproductive immunobiology from all five continents. Within the Journal, the Editors wish to bridge the gap between basic and clinical studies in all subareas of research relevant to reproductive immunobiology.Essent... By following these guidelines, you will ensure that your manuscript is formatted correctly for submission to the Journal of Reproductive Immunology and prevent any delay in the handling of your submission. Abstract:The abstract should be non-structured, meaning it should not have subheadings or separate sections (e.g., Background, Methods, Results, etc.). Provide a concise summary of the key points of your article. The abstract should not exceed 250 words. Highlights: Each highlight should deliver a clear message. Keep the highlights concise and focused, ensuring that they reflect the main findings or implications of the article. 3. Manuscript Structure:The manuscript should be organized using numbered sections and subsections. For a scientific article, use the following general outline:Introduction... and MethodsResultsDiscus... should be numbered as needed (e.g., 2.1, 2.1.1). Other types of articles may have different section titles, but they should follow the same numerical structure for subtitles.The manuscript should be prepared with double lines using size 12 fonts. Please make sure the lines are numbered. 4. Citation Style:Single Author: The author's name and the year of publication (e.g., Allan, 2020).Two Authors: Both authors' names and the year of publication (e.g., Allan and Jones, 2019).Three or More Authors: Use the first author's name followed by "et al." and the year of publication (e.g., Kramer et al., 2023).You can refer to authors either within the text or in parentheses. Example references in text:"as demonstrated (Allan, 2020a, 2020b; Allan and Jones, 2019)" or"as demonstrated (Jones, 2019; Allan, 2020).""Kramer et al. (2023) have recently shown."Groupings of references: References in a group should be listed either alphabetically first and then chronologically or vice versa.Reference List:References should be arranged alphabetically by the first author's last name, and then chronologically.If you have multiple references from the same author(s) in the same year, differentiate them by adding 'a', 'b', 'c', etc., after the year of publication (e.g., Allan, 2020a; Allan, 2020b).For references with more than 6 authors, list the first 6 authors followed by "et al." (e.g., Allan, J., et al., 2020).When citing page numbers, use the shortened form for the last page number (e.g., 51–9).

The authors should outline which research directions should be prioritized and highlight specific points explaining why they should be prioritized in future research. Perspective articles are limited to 6,000 words per article (all text excluding tables and figure legends).6. Letters to the Editor offering comment or useful critique on material published in the journal are welcome. Letters on "hot topics" are also welcome.
