Wishing you all a very Happy, Healthy and Successful New Year! Inviting all ICIS members and others who may be interested in the Society, to view the Cytokines 2022 Member’s Annual Business Meeting.

There will be four winners representing the following geographical areas: Australia, Asia, Europe, South America, North America and Africa!
- What company generously provided an endowment for the Bill Paul award, allowing the ICIS to provide this in perpetuity?
- In 2023 at what other meetings will ICIS satellite sessions be held?
