Who We Are

We are an international society of professionals dedicated to advancing the science, education and application of immunogenetics and transplant immunology. ASHI is:

  • The foremost authority and leading educational resource in immunogenetics and histocompatibility.
  • Dedicated to improving the quality of human life and health through scientific innovations.
  • A diverse, inclusive society working to optimize compatibility assessments for transplant patients and donors.

A primary goal of our laboratories is to help provide the best science and care to patients who need our services. Guidelines and standards help us accomplish that goal. Since 1994, ASHI has been approved by the U.S. government to oversee clinical histocompatibility testing laboratories for quality.
