The Canadian Society for Immunology (CSI) founded in 1966 fosters and supports Immunology research throughout Canada. The society provides a focal point for Canadian Immunology by organizing an annual spring meeting that alternates between the west and the east of the country. The CSI also recognizes scientific excellence via a number of other awards including the CSI investigator awards, poster awards, and travel awards that allow graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and new investigators to attend the annual CSI meetings as well as international immunology meetings. The CSI acts as a liaison for communication between its membership and national funding agencies such as the CIHR Institute for Infection and Immunity. CSI was one of the founding members of the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) and participates in international events through this umbrella organization. The Canadian Society for Immunology is managed by a council consisting of a President, past president, vice president, treasurer/secretary, six councilors, and a member responsible for outreach. CSI currently has more than 250 members representing universities, hospitals, and research institutes across Canada.
