Norwegian Society for Immunology

Welcome to the NSI, the association of immunologists in Norway.

The NSI, a member of the Scandinavian Society for Immunology (SSI), is an active society that arranges meetings with national and international speakers. NSI members can take advantage of benefits such as meeting travel grants and free copies of the Scandinavian Journal of Immunology. Members are concidered for the NSI Research Award given every year on the Day of Immunology for an outstanding article in immunology.

The Board members and the local reps run the NSI. Volunteers are elected to the Board at the annual general meeting. The Board and reps are always delighted to hear from it's members who have suggestions to make, especially when suggesting speakers!

Meetings

We are proud of the high calibre of international speakers who have presented their work and thoughts at NSI meetings, invariably followed by stimulating and thought provoking questions and discussion. Most of the meetings are held in the capital city, Oslo. You can view the future meeting programme or read the meeting history at this website. Meetings are held in English, the official language of the NSI.

Newsletters and discussion forum

The meetings arranged by NSI are open for all, but as a member you receive regular notification by e-mail of NSI meetings as well as other important immunology events in Norway and world-wide. The mailing list <NSI-members@medisin.uio.no> is also an open discussion forum for all members, moderated by the secretary to avoid spam. So if you are a member, please feel free to copy and paste the address within brackets <NSI-members@medisin.uio.no> to your email program and enjoy a good discussion!

Local branches

The Bergen Branch have their own web-pages. Local branch representatives in Tromsø and Trondheim are desirable. Each branch rep would be responsible for arranging local activities in the Norwegian university cities. Read more here.
