Advance Global Scientific Equity with ISAC this Giving Tuesday

The International Society for Advancement of Cytometry (ISAC) invites you to help create a future where scientific discovery isn’t limited by geography or resources.

Through ISAC’s Instruments 4 Science and Live Education Initiatives, your support helps bring cytometry equipment, education, and technical expertise to scientists, educators, and healthcare professionals in resource-limited communities around the world.

Together, we’re breaking down barriers to research, strengthening local scientific capacity, and empowering the next generation of innovators.

DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT

From November 1 through Giving Tuesday, every donation will be matched dollar for dollar—up to $5,000—thanks to the generosity of our Global Partners X, Y, and Z.

Every dollar you give will have twice the impact in expanding access to life-changing scientific tools and training.

Discover how your support helps scientists gain access to the equipment, education, and community they need to improve health, advance research, and strengthen scientific capacity worldwide.

Why Cytometry Matters

Every breakthrough begins with understanding cells.

Cytometry is a powerful technology that allows scientists to analyze individual cells, providing critical insights into human health, agriculture, environmental science, and disease.

Researchers rely on cytometry to:

• Develop new cancer treatments
• Advance vaccine and infectious disease research
• Improve precision medicine
• Strengthen food security through agricultural science
• Protect ecosystems and monitor environmental change

Yet for thousands of scientists around the world, access to cytometry equipment and training remains out of reach.

Scientific potential shouldn’t depend on where someone lives.

Expanding access to cytometry is more than a technical challenge—it’s an opportunity to advance global scientific equity.

ISAC partners with institutions around the world to build lasting scientific capacity—not simply provide equipment.

Our Instruments 4 Science and Live Education initiatives deliver sustainable solutions through:

• Refurbished cytometry instruments donated to under-resourced laboratories
• Hands-on education, technical training, and mentorship
• Long-term partnerships that support local expertise and self-sustaining programs

Working alongside volunteers, educators, and technical experts across six continents, ISAC helps ensure that laboratories have both the tools and the knowledge needed to create lasting impact (Learn more about our process).

Stories from the Field: Real People. Real Impact

Behind every instrument is a scientist. Behind every scientist is the potential to improve lives.

Watch how access to cytometry equipment and training has transformed research, education, and healthcare in communities around the world.

Together we have already made meaningful progress

• Worked across 6 continents
• Delivered 2 cytometry instruments
• Installed 1 instrument
• Received, repaired and recallibrated 3 donated instruments
• Conducted 8 educational workshops and instrument trainings

Every new donation helps us reach even more scientists and institutions. Follow along to see what we will be doing next. 

Your donation fuels a movement—one that supports discovery, public health, and sustainability in resource-limited regions across the globe.

Every contribution helps:

• Equip labs with critical cytometry technology
• Train and mentor scientists, students, and clinicians
• Foster long-term, self-sustaining scientific progress

No gift is too small. Together, we can expand access, empower discovery, and advance global scientific equity.

Our Giving Tuesday campaign is made possible by organizations and individuals who believe scientific opportunity should be accessible to everyone.
