Dear members,

 

As you may be aware, the next meeting of the Middle European Societies for immunology and allergology (MESIA), which will be held from 23-26 November 2022 in Prague, Czech Republic.

MESIA is an initiative to bring together immunologists and allergologists from Austria, the Czech republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary and Croatia in a meeting that is held once every three years.

The concept of this year’s event is different from previous meetings; instead of per topic, sessions will be clustered by country, with Croatia being present on November 24th. The preliminary program is now available here:
