The British Society for Histocompatibility & Immunogenetics (BSHI) was formed in 1989 following widespread expression of support for a formal professional body to represent scientists in the field. Each year the society holds an annual conference and AGM at which delegates and speakers from the UK and further afield attend.
During the annual conference distinguished speakers are invited to give the BSHI Terasaki and Festenstein lectures. A record of previous speakers at these lectures is available by following the links below.
