The East-West Iron Club (EWIC) is an annual gathering deeply rooted in the exploration of iron biology and translational research. Originating as the East Coast Iron Club (ECIC) in New York in 1975, this conference has steadily evolved into a nationally recognized event.
At EWIC, attendees participate in a day-long series of engaging discussions, providing a platform for exchanging ideas and data among researchers. Trainees are especially encouraged to attend, offering them the opportunity to present their work through poster presentations. Since its expansion beyond the East Coast in 2012, EWIC has become a nationwide pivotal meeting point for scholars, fostering collaboration and driving progress in iron-related science.
