The International Cytokine & Interferon Society (ICIS) is a non-profit organization composed of researchers of cytokines, interferons and chemokine cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and the use of biological response modifiers clinically.[1] As the premier organization in the field of cytokine biology, it has more than 950 member scientists. Katherine A. Fitzgerald is the current president of the society.[1]

History

[edit]

Originally founded in 1988 as "The International Cytokine Society" (ICS), after having co-hosted annual meetings with the International Society for Interferon and Cytokine Research (ISICR), the two organizations merged to become the ICIS in 2013.[1]

Journal

[edit]

The ICIS manages Cytokine, a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering all aspects of cytokine biology. The journal was established in 1989 and is now published by Elsevier.[2]

Milstein award

[edit]

Each year the society selects a recipient of the Seymour & Vivian Milstein Award for excellence in interferon and cytokine research.[3][4][5]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
