History

The journal was established by Arthur Fernandez Coca (1875–1959)[9] in 1916 as the official journal of the American Association of Immunologists and the New York Society for Serology and Hematology.[10][11] Coca was sole editor from 1916 to 1925, when John C. Torrey joined the journal.[12] From 1916 to 1925, the journal was published every 2 months, and from 1926 to 1985 (except in 1928) it was published monthly. The journal has been published twice a month since 1986.
