Stem Cell Societies

ASCR  Adult Stem Cell Research Network A project of the Cell Therapy Foundation, designed to be a reliable source of information for the public regarding adult stem cell research, as well as to be a community of practice and collaboration among fellow researchers.   EuroStemCell European Consortium for Stem Cell Research The EuroStemCell consortium brings together sixteen partners, integrating a broad range of disciplines and combining the expertise of the best laboratories in Europe . The centers involved collectively provide the skills and technologies necessary for ground-breaking stem cell research, laying the groundwork for taking stem cell technology to the clinic.   HUPO  Proteome Biology of Stem Cells Initiative Aims to provide a platform for researchers from both stem cell and proteomic communities to define pressing issues in stem cell biology requiring proteomic analysis and to initiate collaborative projects.   ISEH  International Society for Experimental Hematology – Society for Hematology and Stem Cells Working to promote the scientific knowledge and clinical application of basic hematology, immunology, stem cell research, cell and Gene therapy, and related aspects of research through publications, discussions, scientific meetings and the support of young investigators.   ISSCR  International Society for Stem Cell Research An independent, nonprofit organization established to promote and foster the exchange and dissemination of information and ideas relating to stem cells, to encourage the general field of research involving stem cells, and to promote professional and public education in all areas of stem cell research and application.   ISCF  International Stem Cell Forum Made up of twenty one funders of stem cell research from around the world, the ISCF encourages international collaboration and funding support for stem cell research, with the overall aim of promoting global good practice and accelerating progress in this vitally important area of biomedical science.   ISCI  International Stem Cell Initiative A worldwide collaborative effort to establish basic criteria and techniques that will underpin the eventual development of applications for Human Embryonic Stem Cells in human medicine.   Stem Cell Network A Canadian venture that brings together over 50 leading scientists to investigate the potential of stem cells, and be a catalyst for enabling the translation of stem cell research into clinical applications, commercial products, or public policy.   SSSCR  Student Society for Stem Cell Research The SSSCR network spans over 10 countries and 100 institutions consisting of students, researchers, patient advocates, and policy makers united by the purpose of finding treatments and cures to debilitating conditions.
