ISSCR Meets with Policymakers in Washington, D.C.
The ISSCR hosted its second Congressional Advocacy Day in Washington, D.C. on March 2, which was a great success. A group of 20 ISSCR members and staff met with nearly 40 offices of key legislators to advocate for an increase in National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding for FY 2024, discuss the importance of access to fetal tissue for research, and explain the value of chimeric embryo research.
ISSCR Advocates for Stem Cell Research
The ISSCR is deeply committed to supporting and defending stem cell research by advocating for science-based legislative and regulatory policies. Our society has been a steadfast advocate for our international community for many years. The investment in our advocacy work, led by Public Policy Committee Chair Sean Morrison, offers the ISSCR increasing opportunities to shape conversations and inform policy.
Extensive Scientific Programming; Greater Member Access
Belated Happy New Year! We just opened registration for the ISSCR 2023 Annual Meeting in Boston this June, and Program Chair David Scaddan and I look forward to welcoming you to one of the largest biotechnology research cities in the world for an outstanding annual meeting program with many opportunities for abstract submitters to speak.
Join Me in Boston and Share Your Research at ISSCR 2023
Abstracts opened last week for the ISSCR Annual Meeting to be held in June 14-17, 2023 in Boston. There is no better venue to share your latest work, meet potential collaborators, and learn from our global community of stem cell researchers.
ISSCR Membership: A Mark of Excellence
It has been an exciting few months into to my presidential year. I have focused on engaging our members more in the society’s activities through new opportunities such as the Science Spotlights added to the 2023 Annual Meeting program and am enthusiastic to announce the 10 members of the new Stem Cell Reports Early Career Editorial Board.
Now, I am delighted to announce that ISSCR Board of Directors has expanded membership into two new categories to make all of the society’s benefits even more accessible to Trainees in 2023.
