The origins and early years of IUIS.
The International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) was born of the global linkages between scientists involved in an exciting intellectual journey of discovery and search for a conceptual framework for regulation, specificity and memory of the immune response. Starting in the 1950s, a dozen of us discussed the need for an international organization; we founded it in 1969.
