In this episode, Dr. Nicole Quinn speaks with Dr. Tenneille Ludwig, board member of the International Society for Stem Cell Research, and Dr. Rita Carsetti, President of the International Union of Immunological Societies, about the essential role scientific societies play in the global research ecosystem. They discuss how societies bring researchers together across borders, establish guidelines and nomenclature, support early-career scientists, and advocate for science at the policy level.

The conversation also explores how international societies promote equitable access to knowledge, combat misinformation around issues like stem cell therapies and vaccines, and strengthen public trust through clear communication and global collaboration.
