The ISSCR was proud to collaborate with the @AllenInstitute and the @SocDevBio on the inaugural Stem Cell & Developmental Biology Early Career Symposium. Read more about this collaboration: alleninstitute.org/news/firs…

first-of-its-kind stem cell and developmental biology symposium brought more than just science

aspiring researchers learned that what happens outside the lab can be just as important as what happens within it

I explained in The Hill just how essential it is for congress to block OMB’s sweeping rewrite of federal grant rules. Please flag for your representatives and insist they block these rule changes that would devastate the US scientific research enterprise thehill.com/opinion/congress…

Congress must stop the politicization of peer review and American science

American scientific leadership was built by allowing evidence to prevail over ideology.

🚨 1 DAY until #2026SDB! 🪰 That’s about how long it takes a Drosophila embryo to develop and hatch into a larva. A lot can happen in 24 hours, and tomorrow, the developmental biology community comes together in Las Vegas! 🧬🎰
