The Cytokine Signalling Forum (CSF) is an educational website developed under the auspices of the University of Glasgow and is dedicated to the dissemination of the latest development in cytokine signalling. It provides continuing medical education to clinicians around the globe to facilitate greater understanding of the science of cytokines and cytokine signalling, and its implications for clinical practice.
CSF distance learning programmes are free from commercial bias, and feature leading experts sharing their knowledge and experience in the form of video tutorials.
