As one member said, “Enjoying global data from my couch; given the circumstances, it cannot get any better...” This is just the beginning for the Society’s new digital programs as we discover new ways to share science and connect with our community.

I have long believed that one of the most valuable benefits of your membership is the opportunity to leverage the expertise of the global stem cell and regenerative medicine community to help ensure that legislative and regulatory policies support responsible research and discovery in our field. A substantial amount of scientific research is funded through national or government investment, therefore these policies can have a significant impact on biomedical research and the pursuit of new therapeutics to treat disease.
