Welcome to the Immunology Interest Group

The Immunology Interest Group (IIG) organizes activities designed to promote information exchange and interactions among NIH scientists interested in the field of immunology, broadly defined.  Interactions are facilitated via weekly meetings on current topics as well as an Annual Immunology Retreat. 

All IIG activities are organized by the Steering Committee, whose members are elected annually by the entire IIG community before the Immunology Retreat. The 2012 IIG Steering Committee members are:

Silvia Bolland (Tenured, NIAID)
David Margulies (Tenured, NIAID)
Daniel McVicar (Tenured, NCI)
Daniela Verthelyi (Tenured, FDA)
Jon Yewdell (Tenured, NIAID)
Andy Hurwitz (Tenure-Track, NCI) 
Hyun Park (Tenure-Track, NCI)
Calman Prussin (Staff Clinician, NIAID) 
Art Shaffer (Tenure-Track, NCI)
Helen Su (Tenure-Track, NIAID)
Brenna Brady (Fellow, NIAID)
Daniel Green (Fellow, NIAID) 
Timothy Hand (Fellow, NIAID)
Erica Stein (Fellow, NCI)

IIG seminars are typically held every Wednesday at 4:15 p.m. in the Lipsett Auditorium in Building 10. Offsite NIH users, for example at Frederick or Twinbrook, can access the live stream via Adobe Connect.  Because of the per user cost of live streaming, on campus users are asked to attend the actual talk and NOT live stream the talks.

Archived copies of IIG seminars ARE available and are free to watch at the IIG Seminar Archives.
