History
The Austrian Society of Allergology and Immunology (ÖGAI) was founded exactly 50 years ago and today presents itself younger than ever. The vision of the founders to help patients with allergies and with problems of the immune system through interdisciplinary cooperation has been confirmed, especially during the pandemic.
Let’s take a little ÖGAI time travel together through the past 5 decades.
