# Science Immunology (science-immunology) ## Journal positioning Science Immunology is the AAAS specialist immunology journal in the Science family, launched to publish mechanistic immunology research of the highest significance with a particular emphasis on broad relevance and translational potential. Compared to Nature Immunology and Immunity (Cell Press), Science Immunology explicitly values the interface between basic immune mechanisms and human disease — it prizes studies that illuminate fundamental immune biology while having a clear line of sight to human health, including infection, autoimmunity, allergy, cancer immunology, and vaccination. The journal's AAAS editorial culture means a paper must be written for an audience slightly broader than pure immunologists: the advance must be legible and compelling to a scientifically literate non-immunologist. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the AAAS Science Immunology site. ## When to trigger - The author names Science Immunology as the target for a mechanistic immunology

What does the science-immunology skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill science-immunology --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
