WHO WE ARE
The ISI was formed in 1984 and in 1985 we hosted our inaugural research conference. Since then the society has grown from strength to strength. We now represent over 200 immunology researchers across Ireland. Our main activities include our annual research meeting. This is a two day event bringing together world-class international and national immunology researchers, including early career and established researchers. Each year we award the “ISI Annual Award for Immunology” to an exceptional immunology researcher either in Ireland or abroad who has Irish roots. Finally, we run a number of outreach events dedicated to educating and entertaining the public on the subject of immunology.
