The journey started in 2010, when Benito Novas registered what was then known as Stem Cell Training Incorporated — a small initiative born from the belief that regenerative medicine should not be restricted by borders, privilege, or bureaucracy. What began as a handful of passionate physicians sharing ideas and protocols soon became an international movement.
In 2015, the organization evolved into what we know today as the International Society for Stem Cell Application (ISSCA) — a name that reflects its mission to unite physicians, researchers, and innovators from around the world under one purpose: to make stem cell science accessible, ethical, and practical.
