Are you curious about what it takes to get an idea moving from theory to practice? Perhaps even from the bench to the market? Join SNEV as we discuss with Dr. Minh Le the reality of bringing a theoretical concept from laboratory research to a new business opportunity through her research in red blood cell extracellular vesicles. We also highlight her experience navigating both geographical and linguistic international collaborations during her scientific career. Tune in to discover not just the science, but the resilience, creativity, and cross-cultural insights that transform bold ideas into real-world impact.

In this episode we hear from An Hendrix about the EV-Track project and its future directions through the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) EV-Track Taskforce. An’s group developed the EV-Track platform where researchers can submit their publications and experiments as a means of assessing and improving their methodological rigour. The platform is under ongoing development and represents a centralised database on EV publications and their experimental parameters. In this podcast An shares the story of the platforms development and makes a clear case for why EV researchers should engage with the EV-Track project. This is not an episode to be missed!

Have you moved, or considered moving to a new city to pursue EV research? The Mobility for Extracellular Vesicle Research in Europe (MOVE) are an initiative of over 20 European EV societies that support doing just that! In this episode we speak with Dr Jason Webber (UKEV) and Dr María Yáñez-Mó (GEIVEX), two EV researchers and ECM members of European societies which makeup the MOVE initiative.

You'll hear about:

- How the MOVE initiative provides a framework for national society travel fellowships.

- Some insights into the experience of moving cities in an academic career.

- The upcoming MOVE symposium in Estonia.
