The International Society of Neuroimmunology was established in 1982, and since this date has contributed greatly to the growing recognition of the different roles of the immune system in causing or modifying the severity of neurological disorders, and to the potential for new approaches to treatment.
Neuroimmunology is a rapidly expanding field with tremendous and daily advances from basic immunology to clinical practice and They need to have a scientific society capable of supporting established scientists, but also undergraduate and post graduated students. These needs require a scientific body able to guarantee that reserachers worldwide are kept abreast of new developments and to support the participations of students to the society's courses and meetings by providing travel bursaries.
Mission
• To further the knowledge of neuroimmunologic mechanisms and to apply them to human disease.
• To encourage the generation and interchange of ideas and scientific data of relevance to the human nervous system development and disease, between basic and clinical scientists engaged in research in the field.
• To sponsor and conduct symposia for General Members and persons engaged in or interested in research in the field.
• To provide a central information service to distribute material related to the field, and to publish printed matter related to neuroimmunology.
