《免疫與衰老》自2004年出版以來，是一本專業的開放獲取期刊，致力于增加關于衰老對免疫系統的影響、衰老免疫系統對機體健康和壽命的影響以及干預措施增加健康壽命的潛力的知識。該雜志歡迎提交關于人類衰老的任何方面和與免疫功能相關的模型生物體。所有的文章都經過快速和嚴格的同行評審，所有被接受的文章都公開發表，為作者的工作提供最高的可視性。人們越來越認識到，免疫老化和機體老化是密切相關的，這使免疫系統在我們理解和控制衰老過程的努力中處于中心地位，而免疫與衰老繼續為在這個日益重要的領域傳播新知識提供了一個專門的渠道。

Immunity & Ageing, published since 2004, is a specialist open access journal dedicated to increasing knowledge about the impact of ageing on immune systems, the influence of aged immune systems on organismal well-being and longevity, and the potential for interventions to increase healthspan. The journal welcomes submissions dealing with any aspect of ageing in human and model organisms that relates to immune function.All articles undergo rapid and rigorous peer-review and all accepted articles are published open access to provide the highest visibility for authors’ work.The increasing realization that immune ageing and organismal ageing are intimately inter-related puts the immune system centre-stage in our efforts to understand and manipulate the ageing process and Immunity & Ageing continues to offer a specialized conduit for dissemination of new knowledge in this increasingly important arena.
