Day of Immunology 2025

We’re excited to share a first look at an upcoming collaborative campaign that explores the fascinating link between the immune system and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Hosted by South African Immunology Society (SAIS) in partnership with the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) and Multiple Sclerosis South Africa (MSSA), this special Day of Immunology event will highlight:
• The basic immunology of MS
• Diagnostics and treatment
• A powerful patient testimonial

With the theme “Immunological Insights into Neurological Disorders,” the campaign aims to raise awareness and deepen understanding of MS from both scientific and personal perspectives.
