Collaborations
FOCIS Centers of Excellence (FCEs)
Activities
Every year, the FCE Directors Meeting coincides with the FOCIS Annual Meeting. All FCE directors gather to discuss FCE business, exchange best practices, learn about new technology, and decide on joint projects. In the past, 10X Genomics, Alamar Biosciences, BD Biosciences, Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, Immunai, Ionpath, iRepertoire, Inc., Miltenyi Biotec, NanoString Technologies, Olink, Sony Biotechnology, STEMCELL Technologies, and Tessa Therapeutics have all presented.
These FCEs co-organized a FOCIS 2025 Member Society Symposium with FOCIS Member Societies: American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy, European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI), The International Cytokine and Interferon Society, Clinical Immunology Society, American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics, American Society of Transplantation, The Transplantation Society, German Society for Immunology, Asia Pacific Association for Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, French Society of Immunology, The Japanese Society of Clinical Immunology, American Uveitis Society, International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS), Society for Decoding Autoimmunity, National Multiple; Sclerosis Society, Centro de Inmunología Clínica de Córdoba (CICC), Vaccines and ImmunoTherapies Against Infections and Cancers (VITIC), Center for Advanced Immuno-monitoring and Translational Immunology (CAITI), American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics, TAbS (The Antibody Society).
The University of Rouen jointly hosted the FOCIS 2025 European Advanced Course in Rouen, France.
Chiang Mai University jointly hosted the FOCIS 2025 Thailand Advanced Course, held in Bangkok, Thailand.

FOCIS Member Societies
Activities
FOCIS Member Societies are invited to organize a symposium at the FOCIS annual meeting each year. Annual Meeting attendees may go to numerous symposia to get a perspective on interdisciplinary approaches across immunology.
Awards
FOCIS Award Recipients: Recognizing Excellence in Immunology
Each year, FOCIS Award Recipients are honored for their outstanding contributions to immunology research and education. FOCIS presents a variety of prestigious awards to recognize exceptional achievements, primarily during the FOCIS Annual Meeting and the U.S. Advanced Course in Immunology.
Congratulations to all of the FOCIS Award Recipients for their impactful work and dedication to advancing the field of clinical immunology.
Industry Partners and Sponsors
Through the lens of translational immunology, we look past disease into the underlying and overlapping mechanisms in order to accelerate science, medicine and human health.
As such, FOCIS serves as the leading forum that unites thought-leaders along these lines and provides novel education, cutting-edge publications, and cross-disciplinary networking opportunities that cannot be found anywhere else.
Moreover, our industry partners are essential to innovation, research and development across the full spectrum of translational immunology. FOCIS, therefore, deeply values and appreciates the steadfast commitment and support of our industry partners and sponsors.
How to Collaborate with FOCIS
To continue to develop the field of clinical immunology, FOCIS welcomes the chance to work with FOCIS Member Societies, FCEs, and other organizations.
