Description
Federation of Clinical Immunology Societies (FOCIS) is the leading collaborative forum for education, research and networking across the broad field of clinical immunology. Please join us as we explore the various immunologic issues that bind our community.
Since its conception in 2001, the FOCIS organization has grown to 52 Member Societies that collectively represent over 65,000 basic and clinician scientists. Each year, the FOCIS meeting brings together these researchers and clinicians from around the world, working in more than 30 clinical specialties and provides them with a forum to gather and share the latest findings, breakthroughs and therapies related to human disease. The FOCIS concept posits that interrelationships between fields sharing clinical immunology expertise will build a better and faster pathway to improve knowledge that leads to new therapies for inflammatory and immunologic diseases.
World-renowned speakers in the field of clinical immunology will explore their work and touch on the five themes embraced by FOCIS:
* Immunoregulation
* Immunogenetics
* Host Defense
* Immunodiagnosis
* Immunotherapy
Accelerate the evolution of immunology at FOCIS 2012!
