Student Society for Stem Cell Research (SSSCR) Expands Coast to Coast

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Student Society for Stem Cell Research (SSSCR) announced today its recognition of 9 new chapters.

“SSSCR is delighted to welcome to the Pro-Cures Movement chapters at University of Illinois, College of New Jersey, Wayne State University, Medical University of South Carolina, University of Minnesota, Texas A&M, Missouri State University, The Frisch School (Paramus, New Jersey), and New Technology High School (Napa Valley, California),” said Marion J.

“SSSCR has established clubs at other universities and high schools and we expect continued robust growth of the student movement fighting for cures. In the past 12 months, we produced 57 community activities and more than 100 chapter meetings to promote stem cell research including programs with guest speakers, community service, for-credit college courses, Christopher Reeve memorial candlelight vigils, high school outreach, lab tours and social events,” added Riggs.
