Who We Are<\/h2>

The Latin American and Caribbean Association of Immunology (ALACI) is a regional federation of immunology societies from different Latin American and Caribbean countries.<\/p>

It was founded as the Latin American Association of Immunology (ALAI) in 1984 in Buenos Aires, Argentina and integrated in its beginnings by the immunology societies of Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico. Then, the national immunology societies of Colombia and Venezuela (1987), Uruguay (1988), Paraguay (1989), Cuba (1995), Peru (2004), Bolivia (2012), Honduras (2020), and West Indian (2021) were incorporated. Moreover, the societies from El Salvador (2018), Guatemala (2019), and Ecuador (2021) became part or ALAI as correspondent members.<\/p>

Since 1987, ALAI was accepted as the Regional Federation from Latin America by the International Union of Immunology Societies (IUIS).<\/p>

In 2019, ALAI changed its name to ALACI to truly represent the diversity of Latin American and Caribbean countries that form part of it.<\/p>

ALACI brings together around 1,600 Latin American and Caribbean immunologists, who are currently represented in most of the different IUIS Committees.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
