Member Societies

FOCIS Member Societies are disease- and organ-specific organizations interested in interdisciplinary and translational immunology as a component of their main area of practice/study.  

Member Societies within FOCIS are not in competition with one another. Joining FOCIS provides Member Societies with opportunities to collaborate with a broad-based group of clinician-scientists.  

• Professional development opportunities  
• Financial savings (e.g., FOCIS individual member dues and Annual Meeting registration discounts) 
• No fees for your society to join FOCIS! 
• Recognition and promotion  
• Collaborations with a broad-based group of clinician-scientists 
• Opportunity to host a Member Society Symposia at the FOCIS Annual Meeting
• Opportunities to host a virtual webinar series

FOCIS Member Societies can apply to host a symposium at the Annual Meeting. Hosting a symposium allows you to showcase your society, research, and current initiatives.  At the FOCIS 2024 Annual Meeting, 12 Member Society Symposia took place! View last years Member Society Symposia here.

*Joining as a Member Society does not guarantee a symposium as space is limited. 

Member Societies are expected to appoint a FOCIS Representative. This provides FOCIS with one point of contact to communicate important information to and obtain updates from each Member Society (such as changes to the presidency, email addresses, etc.).
