Author Guidelines
1. SUBMISSION
Thank you for your interest in Parasite Immunology. Note that submission implies that the content has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere except as a brief abstract in the proceedings of a scientific meeting or symposium.
Once you have prepared your submission in accordance with the Guidelines, manuscripts should be submitted online at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/pim
The submission system will prompt you to use an ORCID iD (a unique author identifier) to help distinguish your work from that of other researchers. Click here to find out more.

Data protection:
By submitting a manuscript to or reviewing for this publication, your name, email address, and affiliation, and other contact details the publication might require, will be used for the regular operations of the publication, including, when necessary, sharing with the publisher (Wiley) and partners for production and publication. The publication and the publisher recognise the importance of protecting the personal information collected from users in the operation of these services, and have practices in place to ensure that steps are taken to maintain the security, integrity, and privacy of the personal data collected and processed. You can learn more at https://authorservices.wiley.com/statements/data-protection-policy.html.
Preprint Policy:
Wiley believes that journals publishing for communities with established pre-print servers should allow authors to submit manuscripts which have already been made available on a non-commercial preprint server. Allowing submission does not, of course, guarantee that an article will be sent out for review. It simply reflects our belief that journals should not rule out reviewing a paper simply because it has already been available on a non-commercial server. Please see below for the specific policy language.
However, Wiley also knows that the use of preprint servers is not universally accepted and that individual journals and/or societies may approach submission of preprints differently.
This journal will consider for review articles previously available as preprints on non-commercial servers such as ArXiv, bioRxiv, psyArXiv, SocArXiv, engrXiv, etc. Authors may also post the submitted version of a manuscript to non-commercial servers at any time. Authors are requested to update any pre-publication versions with a link to the final published article.
For help with submissions, please contact: pimedoffice@wiley.com
We look forward to your submission.
2. AIMS AND SCOPE
Parasite Immunology is an international journal devoted to research on all aspects of parasite immunology in humans and animals. The Journal welcomes original work on all eukaryotic infections including helminths, protozoa, fungi, ectoparasites and disease vectors. The Journal publishes studies designed to understand how hosts and vectors control parasites, the immunopathological reactions which take place in the course of parasitic infections, and the use of immunological parameters to diagnose infection to understand the distribution and transmission of parasites (immunoepidemiology). In silico studies using existing data sets to explore novel hypotheses will be considered for publication but emergent hypotheses will normally require some form of empirical validation. The global readership of Parasite Immunology includes researchers, university and college lecturers and their students, clinicians and public health professionals.
Each issue will contain original papers, brief definitive reports and review articles.
• Negative/null results
In order for research to advance, negative results, which often make a valuable contribution to the field, should be published. However, articles containing negative or null results are frequently not considered for publication or rejected by journals. We welcome papers of this kind, where appropriate and valid power calculations are included that give confidence that a negative result can be relied upon.
Keywords: parasite immunology, cellular immunology, fungus, fungal infection, helminth, helminthic disease, immunology, immunopathology, parasite, parasitology, protozoa, protozoan disease, ectoparasite, diagnosis, epidemiology
3. MANUSCRIPT CATEGORIES AND REQUIREMENTS
• Original Articles –reports of new research findings or conceptual analyses that make a significant contribution to knowledge (3500 word limit).
• Review Articles – critical reviews of the literature, including systematic reviews and meta-analyses (5000 word limit).
• Brief Reports- preliminary findings of research in progress or a case report of particular interest (1500 word limit).
• Letters to the Editor–are welcomed (400 word limit).
Please follow the recommended file formats listed here (see final paragraph). A separate figure legend should not be submitted. The majority of the accepted submissions will be published in the online issue of the journal. The editors may select the image to appear in communication platforms of the journal.
4. PREPARING YOUR SUBMISSION
Free format submission
Parasite Immunology offers free format submission for a simplified and streamlined submission process.
Before you submit, you will need:
Your manuscript: this can be a single file including text, figures, and tables, or separate files – whichever you prefer. All required sections should be contained in your manuscript, including abstract, introduction, methods, results, and conclusions. Figures and tables should have legends. References may be submitted in any style or format, as long as it is consistent throughout the manuscript. If the manuscript, figures or tables are difficult for you to read, they will also be difficult for the editors and reviewers.
The title page of the manuscript should include statements detailing any ethical procedures followed during the research, such as patient consent, ethical approval and clinical trial registration.
To submit, login at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/pim and create a new submission. Follow the submission steps as required and submit the manuscript.
If you are invited to revise your manuscript after peer review, the journal will request the revised manuscript to be formatted according to journal requirements as described below.

It may include tables, figures, videos, datasets, etc. Click here for Wiley’s FAQs on supporting information. Note, if data, scripts or other artefacts used to generate the analyses presented in the paper are available via a publicly available data repository, authors should include a reference to the location of the material within their paper.
General Style Points
The following links provide general advice on formatting and style.
• Abbreviations: In general, terms should not be abbreviated unless they are used repeatedly and the abbreviation is helpful to the reader. Initially use the word in full, followed by the abbreviation in parentheses. Thereafter use the abbreviation only.
• Units of measurement: Measurements should be given in SI or SI-derived units. Visit the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM) website at http://www.bipm.fr for more information about SI units.
• Numbers: numbers under 10 are spelt out, except for: measurements with a unit (8mmol/l); age (6 weeks old), or lists with other numbers (11 dogs, 9 cats, 4 gerbils).
• Trade Names: Chemical substances should be referred to by the generic name only. Trade names should not be used. Drugs should be referred to by their generic names. If proprietary drugs have been used in the study, refer to these by their generic name, mentioning the proprietary name, and the name and location of the manufacturer, in parentheses.
• Human and Murine Genes: For human genes, use genetic notation and symbols approved by the HUGO Nomenclature Committee. Approved gene symbols should be obtained prior to submission from the HUGO Nomenclature Committee, nome@galton.ucl.ac.uk. For nomenclature guidelines, see White et al., 'Guidelines for Human Gene Nomenclature' [Genomics, 45, 468-471 (1997)]. The Gene Name Proposal form may be completed on the Nomenclature Web page: http://www.genenames.org. Use ISCN nomenclature for cytogenetics notation [Mitelman, F. (ed.) ISCN 1995: An International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature, S. Karger, Basel]. Human gene names and loci should be written in uppercase italics and Arabic numerals. Protein products are not italicized. For mouse strain and genetic nomenclature, refer to the International Committee on Standardized Genetic Nomenclature for Mice: http://www.informatics.jax.org/nomen/. New symbols and names for genes should be obtained prior to submission through the online symbol registry form at: http://www.informatics.jax.org/nomen/nomen_submit_form.shtml.
