The International Eosinophil Society, Inc. (IES) is an organization of scientists and clinicians interested in the eosinophil, a blood cell strongly associated with many diseases. The society sponsors biennial meetings to review new information about the eosinophil and its roles in health and disease.
IES has been established to bring together scientists around the world who are engaged in research in the field of Eosinophil Biology and Eosinophil Disorders with a view to facilitating exchange of ideas and information about this fascinating inflammatory cell type and its role in diseases.
Eosinophil Biology
Discussions will cover all aspects of eosinophil biology, ranging from mechanisms regulating their development and differentiation to their function and activation both in vitro and in vivo. They will focus on both cellular responses as well as the function of eosinophil products and include their regulation by pharmacological agents.
Eosinophil Disorders
IES provides a framework for discussing research regarding eosinophil disorders. In order to facilitate the optimal exchange of ideas regarding rare eosinophil diseases, the IES holds biennial meetings. Please click on the Symposia tab to see the Final Program from “Eosinophils 2011: Forever Young,” held June 21-25 in Quebec City, Canada.
