The European Society for Clinical Investigation (ESCI) was founded on February 12, 1967 as a pan-European society of clinicians and scientists with a genuine interest in uncovering disease mechanisms. The term clinical investigation is interpreted widely, from bench-to-bedside and vice versa, including animal studies relevant to human health and disease.
Objectives
The objectives of ESCI are
- the advancement of medical practice through biomedical science,
- the cultivation of clinical research by the methods of the natural sciences,
- the correlation of the science art and medicine,
- the fostering of high standards of ethical practice and investigation, and
- the diffusion of a spirit of fraternity and international cooperation among and through its members.
The goal is to be the leading clinical research society across Europe.
