The EFIS Board traditionally holds its meetings in different cities throughout Europe, in order to learn more about the current state of affairs of its affiliated Members. With "EFIS on Tour", EFIS wants to take this effort one step further, by proposing the organization of a half-day symposium during which representatives of a proponent local Society join EFIS Board Members to address current themes in the field of immunology. The inaugural "EFIS on Tour" Symposium was held in Budapest on Friday, July 1st, 2016. The EFIS Board encourages its Member Societies to consider this opportunity to engage the EFIS Board, and to reserve an "EFIS on Tour" Symposium. For more information contact office@efis.org.

The EFIS Board thanks those Societies that have acknowledged with their replies and ratified the decision to alternate the venues of ECI 2018 and ECI 2021. As already expressed by TSI and EFIS Presidents, this was by no means an easy decision. It was, however, deemed to be the best alternative to ensure the success of both events.  The Dutch Society (NVVI) has been informed accordingly, to proceed with arrangements for what is sure to be a memorable occasion.
