Meeting Announcement
The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) has opened registration and abstract submission for the ISSCR 2026 Annual Meeting, taking place 8-11 July 2026 in Montréal, Canada. The Global Stem Cell Event will bring together academic and industry leaders driving progress in stem cell science and regenerative medicine.
STEMCELL Technologies will co-sponsor the hallmark event, continuing a valued collaboration that underscores the importance of partnership between science and industry in advancing the field.
From Oct. 6-9, Pennington Biomedical Research Center hosted the NIDDK Clinical Methods for Nutrition and Obesity Research Course, an intensive four-day training program designed to equip postdoctoral fellows, advanced doctoral students, and early career investigators with hands-on expertise in state-of-the-art methods for clinical research in obesity, metabolism and nutrition.
Sponsored by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, or NIDDK, the course and the Pennington-Louisiana Nutrition Obesity Research Center, or NORC, welcomed a cohort of bright, emerging scientists from across the country.
Early bird registrations - with savings of up to 53% - are closing on 20 October 2025 for delegates wanting to attend the 13th World Conference of Science (WCSJ 2025). The Conference takes place from 1 to 5 December 2025 in Pretoria, South Africa.
The WCSJ is a biennial gathering of the world’s science journalists — a space to sharpen their skills, exchange ideas, and explore how best to tell the stories that shape our shared future. Science journalists play a vital role in keeping the public informed about the issues that matter most, from climate change and health crises to the challenges of misinformation, shrinking funding, and reporting amid global conflict.
– The American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNSF) 2025 Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO concluded its Scientific Oral Presentation program on Tuesday with 85 studies that establish new clinical correlations and provide evidence to optimize patient care across the full spectrum of otolaryngology practice. The final day's research program underscored the specialty's dedication to answering complex clinical questions through rigorous investigation.
From cochlear gene therapy that could reverse genetic deafness to precision surgical techniques that improve cancer outcomes, and access to specialized ENT-related care, the depth of these lectures demonstrate why thousands of otolaryngologists from around the globe travel to this premier education event each year—to access the clinical education and discussions that directly impact the care they provide to patients.
Throughout the AAO-HNSF 2025 Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO, attendees experienced the engaging and collaborative spirit that makes this annual gathering the premier event in the field, with competitions and showcases highlighting the best and brightest minds advancing patient care and surgical education. From groundbreaking research presentations to creative exhibit displays and spirited education competitions, this year's Annual Meeting brought together the otolaryngology community to recognize outstanding contributions across multiple categories.
