The ISSCR Calls for Science Serving the Public Good to be of the Highest Quality and Integrity

The ISSCR joined more than 90 scientific, academic, and professional organizations to emphasize that science serving the public good should be of the highest quality, integrity, and utility. In a letter sent to White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios, signatories urged policymakers to recognize that any efforts to strengthen scientific integrity, including those outlined in the recent Executive Order “Restoring Gold Standard Science,” must build upon, rather than undermine, the existing foundational pillars of gold standard science that have driven decades of scientific and technological progress. These principles, including empirical rigor, objectivity, peer review, and reproducibility have been central to the advancement of stem cell science and the development of cell-based therapies.
