Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Trial and Error, Dr. Sarahanne Field, challenges one of the most entrenched incentives in research: the pressure to publish only positive results. In Season 3, Episode 4 of the Lab Coats & Life™ Podcast, she emphasizes how uncertainty makes researchers (and reviewers) uncomfortable, why “failing” to confirm a hypothesis often raises more valuable questions, and how the publishing landscape needs to evolve. If you’ve ever had a well-designed study that didn’t behave the way you expected, listen in. Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

Scaling up immune cell culture? GMP-manufactured ImmunoCult™-XF now comes in a 1 L bag with weldable tubing and a needleless injection port to support closed, aseptic workflows. Same serum- and xeno-free medium, more options for cell therapy manufacturing. Learn more:

More options for delivering the cargo you need into the cells you work with! ⚡ The CellPore™ Transfection System now offers 5 specialized CellPore™ Delivery Cartridges. Powered by Cell Squeeze™ mechanoporation technology, these cartridges deliver nucleic acids, RNPs, and antibodies across primary immune cells, stem cells, and immortalized cell lines. More cargo types. More cell types. Gentle delivery. ➡️ Find the right CellPore™ cartridge for your specific application: #CellDelivery #CellTransfection

On Saturday, October 3, over 20 team members from STEMCELL Technologies volunteered at the @scienceworldca Girls and STEAM Summit to help inspire 300 girls to explore future careers in science. As a proud presenting partner, STEMCELL is deeply committed to fostering accessible STEM education and empowering the next generation of women leaders in science, technology, engineering, art, and math. Throughout the day, our volunteers led hands-on workshops on laboratory techniques like pipetting and serial dilutions, while engaging visitors at interactive showcase booths. We are incredibly grateful to our volunteers and partners at Science World for helping us spark curiosity and build bright futures for tomorrow's innovators.
