The mission of the society is to promote immunology through educational activities, annual meetings, monographic symposia and providing career training courses. SEI also organizes annual workshops for standardization of diagnostic immunology tests for immunochemistry, allergy, autoimmunity and cellular immunology. In addition, SEI runs the External Quality Assurance for Diagnostic Immunology Laboratories program (GECLID) that monitors immunology interlaboratory quality data in collaboration with the British UKNEQAS platform. Finally, SEI hosts the online journal “Inmunologia” for the dissemination of articles, reviews, meeting reports, journal clubs and other educational activities.

SEI has served as advisory board to the Spanish Ministry of Health and regional health authorities on epidemics, vaccines and health policies among others and continues to serve the Spanish Ministry of Health on COVID-19 related issues. As part of the support to the Spanish National Health System, SEI has developed a free-app that helps distinguish common symptoms of common cold, flu and COVID-19, following the indications reported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious diseases (NIAID), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Importantly, this app does not ask for personal information and data is neither recorded nor stored.
