Federation of Clinical Immunology Societies

Fostering interdisciplinary approaches to both understand and treat immune-based diseases

FOCIS Stands in Solidarity with Ukraine

The Federation of Clinical Immunology Societies (FOCIS) stands in solidarity with Ukraine. We support the international community in its condemnation of the violent aggression against Ukraine.

FOCIS engages with the global and Ukrainian translational immunology academic and scientific research community, and we endorse the International Science Council (ISC) Statement on Ukraine.

We at FOCIS are working to support our Member Society in Ukraine, the Ukrainian Society of Specialists in Immunology, Allergology and Immunorehabilitation (UTIAI), through this difficult situation to provide the means to continue sharing research and collaborate in the translational immunology community. One way that we can all help is to consider donating to organizations committed to providing humanitarian aid, including the International Committee of the Red Cross, Refugees International, and other similar non-governmental humanitarian organizations.

As the people and nation of Ukraine courageously defend its borders and sovereignty, we deplore the lives lost and the threat to the human rights of all people involved in this terrible struggle. Our thoughts are with our friends, colleagues, and all who have been impacted. We fervently hope for a swift end to this war and the restoration of peace and safety to Ukraine and the surrounding region.
