I am particularly excited about this year’s meeting. The scientific program reflects the core tenets of FOCIS by bridging the gap between basic and clinical immunology and discussing novel translational therapies. We value the participation of each of you who have touched FOCIS in one way or another over the past 17 years, and we hope that you will join us as we move into the future. FOCIS introduced individual membership in 2012, and I invite you to join FOCIS and collaborate with us to promote education, research and patient care around the theme of translational immunology. Memberships run on a calendar year basis and are available at the conference. At FOCIS 2017, membership also gains you exclusive access to a Members-only Lounge complete with a complimentary espresso bar as well as a festive Members-only Reception at Kitty O’Sheas on Thursday, June 16. Please join me in extending my most heartfelt thanks to the members of the FOCIS 2017 Scientific Program Committee for their time, energy and expertise. I hope you enjoy the fruits of their labor – FOCIS 2017. Welcome to Chicago! Sincerely, Jeffrey Bluestone, PhD, FOCIS President University of California, San Francisco FOCIS 2017 MOBILE APP Use your mobile phone/tablet to view the program, make SUPPORTERS a personal schedule, view the exhibits and much more!
