Cell Research is proud to present a collection of featured articles from the last 3 years that represent a broad scope in basic molecular and cell biology research.

Following the recent declaration from the World Health Organization that the ongoing monkeypox (now named mpox) outbreak is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, the editorial teams at Nature Portfolio have curated a collection of relevant articles.

Chenqi Xu, Hua-Bing Li and Richard A. Flavell presented a special review collection in Cell Research discussing our understanding and perspectives of immunological frontiers. The review collection covered diverse topics including cancer immunology, immunometabolism, regulatory T cells, innate lymphoid cells, microbiota/immune interplay, and the inflammasome.

Cell Research is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary of publication. Since launching in 1990, we've been making high quality original articles and sharply focused reviews or research highlights available to all. This article collection features our best research articles across the broad areas of the journal scope over the last three decades. We hope you enjoy reviewing how these most accessed and interesting articles advanced in the field of molecular and cell biology.
