The International Society of Cryosurgery  (I.S.C.) was founded in 1974 to promote continuing medical education in the field of cryosurgery from an experimental and clinical point of view. The overall aim of the ISC is to continue to develop and expand membership of the society.

The headquarters of the Society are based at Casa di Cura Salus, Via Bonaparte 4, 34100 Trieste,  Italia. The Society corresponds with members world-wide.  Membership is open to anyone who has a professional interest in research and education in the fields of Cryosurgery, Cryobiology, Cryopreservation, and other disciplines related to the use of low temperature in medicine.

A major world congress (autumn) is held in different continents every 2 years with a wide-ranging scientific programme covering all areas of cryosurgery and cryobiology. The 14th International Congress will take place  in Beijing, China, November 2007.The Society also recognises significant scientific achievements by younger researchers via special awards.

Apart from the main meeting, the ISC recently started holding regional activities and meetings in each continent (Europe, Mediterranean, Asia, Australasia & Pacific, North America, South America, Africa.) 
These meetings are organised by members of the ISC Board who are based in the respective continent.  
Our 2005 activities included Cryosurgery in the Americas (Montreal),  Cryosurgery in the treatment of cancer (Corfu) and the  "Association of British and Irish Cryosurgery" (ABIC) held its 4th annual meeting in Crewe.
