The goal of the Histiocyte Society Young Investigator (YI) Committee is to expand resources and opportunities for YIs who are interested in histiocytic diseases. We focus on mentorship, research, grant funding, and career development. Members of the YI Committee will have the opportunity to participate in the Histiocyte Society Mentorship Program, to connect with other YIs via a seminar series, and to become involved in clinical and research projects through the Histiocyte Society.  

To join the YI Committee, you must be a member of the Histiocyte Society in good standing.  Visit the Histiocyte Society Membership Page to apply. Once your application is approved, email the Histiocyte Society Secretariat at secretariat@histiocytesociety.org to be added to the YI email list.
