WHAT IS THE ISSCA SANTA CRUZ CONFERENCE?
"ISSCA Santa Cruz is a two-day international medical event built on three pillars — the science that defines regenerative medicine today, the protocols you'll actually deploy in your clinic Monday morning, and the international network that turns a conference into a career."
— ISSCA Executive Committee
Regenerative medicine is evolving at an unstoppable pace. Join the leaders shaping the future of Cellular Therapies and Regenerative Medicine (MSCs, exosomes, NK cells, AI in diagnostics).
This event is clinical, applicable and validated — a true opportunity to learn directly from those implementing cutting-edge protocols in MSK, autoimmune, neuroregeneration, immunomodulation, aesthetics and longevity. ISSCA 126 runs in the Signature format — a small group with direct access to the faculty and networking with peers and instructors throughout both days.
SANTA CRUZ
The epicenter of Latin American regenerative medicine — live, clinical, actionable.

What you learn on Day 1 is what you can apply in your clinic — backed by a globally recognized ISSCA credential.
Key Topics
MSCs: paracrine mechanisms vs differentiation • Secretome and exosomes as cell-free therapy • Muse Cells, NK Cells, and Dendritic cells • Clinical design: dosing, administration routes, patient selection, and safety
Plus: networking with peers and instructors
