Organizations Filed Purposes:
THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF IMMUNOLOGISTS (AAI) IS AN INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION REPRESENTING PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED SCIENTISTS WHO CONDUCT BASIC AND CLINICAL RESEARCH ON THE BIOLOGY OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM. AAI IS DEDICATED TO ADVANCING THE KNOWLEDGE OF IMMUNOLOGY, FOSTERING THE INTERCHANGE OF IDEAS AND INFORMATION AMONG INVESTIGATORS, AND ADDRESSING THE POTENTIAL INTEGRATION OF IMMUNOLOGIC PRINCIPLES INTO CLINICAL PRACTICE. AAI SERVES ITS MEMBERS BY PROVIDING A CENTER FOR THE DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION RELEVANT TO THE FIELD AND ITS PRACTICES SUCH AS EDUCATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, SCIENTIFIC MEETINGS, MEMBERSHIP-DERIVED ISSUES AND OPINIONS, AND IMPORTANT SOCIAL AND POLITICAL MATTERS. AAI OWNS AND PUBLISHES THE JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY-THE LARGEST AND MOST HIGHLY CITED JOURNAL IN THE FIELD.
TO ADVANCE AND DISSEMINATE THE KNOWLEDGE OF IMMUNOLOGY AND RELATED DISCIPLINES, TO FOSTER INTERCHANGE OF IDEAS AND INFORMATION AMONG INVESTIGATORS IN THE VARIOUS DISCIPLINES, AND PROMOTING AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE FIELD OF IMMUNOLOGY.
THE JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY:A MAJOR VEHICLE OF INFORMATION DISSEMINATION FOR RESEARCH FINDINGS IN THE FIELD OF IMMUNOLOGY IS THROUGH PUBLICATION OF THAT WORK IN THE JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY (THE JI) - A SCHOLARLY PUBLICATION OWNED AND PRODUCED BY AAI. THE JI IS PUBLISHED SEMIMONTHLY AND REPORTS NOVEL RESULTS FROM ALL AREAS OF EXPERIMENTAL IMMUNOLOGY. IT IS THE OLDEST AND MOST HIGHLY CITED JOURNAL IN THE FIELD. THE JI IS PUBLISHED IN PRINT AND ONLINE, AND IS DISTRIBUTED TO ALL AAI MEMBERS AS WELL AS OTHER SUBSCRIBERS, INCLUDING MAJOR RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AND BIOTECH COMPANIES. ABSTRACTS OF ALL ARTICLES ARE PUBLISHED ONLINE IMMEDIATELY UPON PUBLICATION, AND ARE FREELY AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC. FULL LENGTH ARTICLES ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE TO THE PUBLIC 12 MONTHS AFTER THEIR INITIAL PUBLICATION. ALL JOURNAL CONTENT CAN BE VIEWED AT WWW.JIMMUNOL.ORG. THE JI EDUCATES AAI MEMBERS AS WELL AS NON-MEMBER SCIENTISTS AND PHYSICIANS, AND THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FIELD OF IMMUNOLOGY. IT ALSO FOSTERS SCIENTIFIC DISCOURSE AMONG IMMUNOLOGISTS BY ESTABLISHING A FORUM FOR THE DISSEMINATION AND DISCUSSION OF CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH IN IMMUNOLOGY. OVERSIGHT FOR THE ACTIVITIES AND POLICIES OF THE JI ARE CARRIED OUT BY AN EIGHT-MEMBER PUBLICATION COMMITTEE, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, WHO SERVES AS THE EXECUTIVE EDITOR OF THE JI.
AWARDS:THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF IMMUNOLOGISTS ANNUALLY HONORS THE RESEARCH ACHIEVEMENTS AND PROFESSIONAL PROMISE OF OVER 1,000 SCIENTISTS THROUGH FELLOWSHIPS, CAREER AWARDS, AND TRAVEL GRANTS.
