Happening now at #ISSCR2024: NYSCF’s Raeka Aiyar announces our new partnership with Allen Institute to create a collection of tagged, ancestrally diverse stem cell lines with the aim of enabling inclusive quantitative cellular biology.
About us
The mission of The New York Stem Cell Foundation is to cure the major diseases of our time through stem cell research. In addition to conducting innovative stem cell research in our own safe haven laboratories, NYSCF also supports and convenes global stem cell thought leaders and the broader stem cell community – all with the focus on getting to patients. Since our founding in 2005, NYSCF has been able to achieve outsized results in a relatively short period of time thanks to private philanthropy. The NYSCF Research Institute, an independent laboratory, is a non-profit accelerator that serves to bridge the ongoing gap between research institutions and pharmaceutical and biotech companies by reducing the cost, time, and risk that historically inhibit the development of new treatments and cures. In just over one decade, NYSCF has created not only foundational tools for using stem cells in basic research, but also pioneering technologies that will allow stem cells to be used therapeutically. By pursuing and supporting only the most promising stem cell research and technologies, in our own laboratories and in partnership with leading institutions around the world, NYSCF serves as a catalyst in this transformational field, advancing our mission to accelerate cures for the major diseases of our time.

We were honored to welcome Congressman Jerry Nadler to NYSCF recently. His visit highlights the importance of continued support for scientific research and innovation. Stem cell technology in New York City is rapidly advancing, with cutting-edge research institutions like NYSCF leading the way in innovative medical treatments and therapies. This progress is positioning NYC as a global hub for biotechnology, attracting top talent and significant investments in the healthcare sector. Congressman Nadler met with a group of NYSCF scientists, including Dr. Daniel Paull, Senior Vice President, Discovery and Platform Development at NYSCF. Dr. Paull oversees the NYSCF Global Stem Cell Array®, our fully robotic platform that brings the power of automation to stem cell research and disease modeling and allows scientists to study how disease affects patient populations.

“NYSCF mourns the loss of Jim Simons, our visionary partner. Over the last few decades, I had the good fortune of working with Jim and Marilyn on wide-ranging philanthropic efforts in education and health. They were an extraordinary team. At NYSCF, we are forever grateful to Jim, Marilyn, and the Simons Foundation for their deeply impactful partnership. Jim’s incredible legacy will live on through NYSCF’s pioneering programs in stem cell technology, autism research, and neurodiversity in the workplace. Our hearts are with his family and our friends at the Simons Foundation." — NYSCF President & CEO Jennifer J. Raab Read more about Jim's life and legacy: https://bit.ly/3WPUOTs
