About Research Center for Immunodeficiencies
In 1997, a group of clinical immunologists and medical students started to investigate the frequency of primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) in Iran. Subsequently, in 1999, the Iranian Primary Immunodeficiency Registry (IPIDR) was established. In recent years, the number of interested researchers has substantially risen, and this expansion has resulted in a growth of the complexity of the group, bringing about the requirement for a clearer definition of the purposes and activities. Meantime, an informal research group with a specific interest in the field of PID had a chance to design several national and international research projects with outstanding scientific output in this field. In 2010, the Research Center for Immunodeficiencies (RCID) affiliated to Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) was established. It is our hope that RCID can promote scientific activities in this field, not only with regard to to research but also in education and care of affected patients.
