"Mission statement"
Welcome to V-ESCCA
V-ESCCA was started in 2024 under the umbrella of the European Society of Clinical Cell Analysis (ESCCA). Our mission is to facilitate the use of cytometry for the analysis of extracellular vesicles (EVs) across the broad community of ESCCA members, affiliated societies and beyond. As a group we are working to establish protocols to help users understand the capacities and limitations of their existing platforms so that they can meaningfully use nano cytometry for EVs in a clinical context.
We are collaborating with other EV societies and working to complement existing activities with a clinical focus. We are not competing with existing societies and working groups.
