A Brief History of the!Cell Stress Society International!
On its Fifteen Anniversary!!
By!!
Founding President Larry Hightower!--------------------------!
First of 3 key events: An international workshop tradition begins In the fall of 1997, Subhash Lakhotia hosted a workshop entitled “Molecular Biology of Stress Responses” in India. This set the pattern for future CSSI international workshops: About 100 participants, 70% from the host developing country and neighboring countries, emphasis on quality science, student participation, and culture.!
Wolfgang Schumann and Subhash. !Wolfgang tells the story of the idea of !a workshop at www.cellstress.uconn.edu.!
Pramod Srivastava and Takashi Yura!
Second Event: An international congress in Budapest, 1997 The Budapest Congress attracted over 700 colleagues from over 62 countries. With an !attendance more than twice the 1996 Cold Spring Harbor meeting, a very popular venue that !had filled beyond capacity, this congress demonstrated that there was great interest and enthusiasm!from the global scientific community to support and attend international meetings in our field.!
90th birth anniversary of Hans Selye
Peter Csermely, Chairman!
2nd CSAC Editorial Board Meeting: Drs Hickey, Yura,!Brown and Morimoto (L to R)!
Announcement of New Journal: September 21, 1995 Nature
Third and Catalyzing Event: Another publisher buys CL. Decision!was made to terminate CSAC at the end of 1999. !

Session speakers: N. Pfanner, !K.-D. Scharf, R. Morimoto, L. Hightower, !E. Muckel and L. Nover (Session Chair).!
2013 was the 18th year of!Cell Stress & Chaperones!
Bound volumes of a journal are rarely seen today. !It is a good way to show the growth of our journal over!its 18 year existence. Dramatic increases in the number of !published papers began in 2008, the start of the Springer Era. !In that year Cell Stress & Chaperones became published by Springer and is part of the world-wide distribution system for Springer electronic and print journals.!
The first public display of CSAC was during!The German Society for Cell Biology meeting,!Hamburg, 1996.!
