A Future Outlook on Molecular Mechanisms of Immunity

As the theme of this special issue is centered on molecular mechanisms of immunity, we collected pointed insights on the timeliness of this topic of discussion, as well as on some of the directions in which this research area (and its subfields) appears to be headed. What are some of the global views on molecular immunology and which concepts should we be thinking about? Catarina Sacristan, the Editor-in-Chief of Trends in Immunology, posed several questions to six members of our Advisory Board who are experts in the field, and have a formidable grasp on molecular immunology. Here are the questions, followed by their responses.
