ISSM Spotlight

Each month ISSM shines a light on the people and organizations shaping the future of sexual medicine. In our Member Spotlight, we feature dedicated professionals who share their passion for the field, why they joined ISSM, and their tips for fellow experts. Through the Future Leader Spotlight, we highlight participants of the ISSM Future Leaders Program as they reflect on how the program has propelled their careers and offer guidance to the next generation of professionals. And with our Regional Society Spotlight, we introduce the affiliated societies that represent nearly 75 percent of ISSM’s membership, showcasing how they drive progress and support sexual medicine within their regions, ensuring global impact with local relevance.
