WELCOME MESSAGE
LOCAL ORGANIZING COMMITTEE
DEAR GLOBAL IMMUNOLOGY COMMUNITY,
On behalf of the Austrian Society for Allergology and Immunology (ÖGAI) and the Local Organizing Committee, we cordially invite you to the 19th International Congress of Immunology to be held in Vienna from August 17-22, 2025. We are proud to host the Congress of the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) because we consider IUIS as “the” umbrella organization for regional and national societies of Immunology throughout the world, promoting Immunology without borders.
We selected the theme “Waltzing into the Future of Immunology: For a better Health” as a motto for the congress. After having experienced the COVID-19 pandemic everybody will agree that Immunology is highly important for mankind. We are convinced that prevention of diseases and improvement of health care can originate only from basic research, especially in the field of Immunology.
This congress will offer exciting scientific sessions, and, at the same time, you can spend most memorable days with us, discovering the rich past and vibrant present Vienna and its beautiful surroundings. We kindly ask you to note the dates August 17-22, 2025 in your calendar and to spread the news among your colleagues. The Local Organizing Committee will do the best to make this congress in Vienna a most memorable scientific, social, and cultural event.
We are looking forward to meeting you in person in fascinating Vienna.
Sincerely yours,
Rudolf Valenta
Congress President IUIS 2025, Professor, Medical University of Vienna
Barbara Bohle
Congress Vice President IUIS 2025, Professor, Medical University of Vienna
