ISOTT was founded by Drs. Duane F. Bruley and Haim I. Bicher in the state of South Carolina, USA in 1973. The symposium was jointly held at Clemson University (Clemson, SC, USA) and the Medical College of South Carolina (Charleston, SC, USA), which are geographically located 260 miles apart. This venue resulted from Dr. Bruley's (Clemson University) wish to have a meeting on Oxygen Transport to Tissue and with it to honor the research collaboration between the two universities and Dr. Melvin H. Knisely's accomplishments on studies regarding "blood sludging" in the microcirculation. Because of the unexpected large response to the symposium, Drs. Bruley and Bicher decided to found an international society at this meeting (ISOTT). The purpose of this paper is to summarize the formalization of ISOTT and to honor important contributors to the society who have since passed away. The authors did their best to include a brief overview of our past icons who have excelled in leadership as well as science/engineering, and apologize if someone has been mistakenly left out or if data is inaccurate or incomplete.
