Microcirculatory Society

The Microcirculatory Society, Inc. was the first scientific society founded to promote research and teaching in the field of microcirculation. Although many members come from all over the world, most of its membership comes from the United States and Canada. Other societies have subsequently been formed to represent specific global regions, including the European Society for Microcirculation, the Asian Union for Microcirculation and the Australia & New Zealand Microcirculation Society, as well as individual countries, such as Britain, Japan, Germany, France, Hungary, Israel, Italy, China, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and others. The Microcirculatory Society publishes the scientific journal Microcirculation in conjunction with the British Microcirculation Society.
