Program Overview
Program Leadership
The Scientific Content is Organized Around 6 Tracks
Clinical Applications
Highlighting cellular therapy and tissue engineering research moving toward the clinic; examining manufacturing and upscaling; presenting clinical trial updates.
Disease Modeling and Drug Discovery
Examining advances in using stem cells, both in vivo and in vitro, to model development and disease, with applications for drug discovery and therapeutics.
Ethics, Policy & STANDARDS
The ISSCR standing committees representing these three areas integral to stem cell research and regenerative medicine will each design a session for the annual meeting program to be held during the concurrent track sessions in the program.
Organ Generation and Regeneration
Research advances in stem cells and tissue biology relevant to normal organ formation during development, including experimental strategies for ex vivo organ engineering and in vivo replacement. This also includes research into organ regeneration following injury or damage.
Pluripotency and Development
Understanding pluripotency and lineage commitment; exploring embryo and organ development.
Somatic Stem Cells and Cancer
Exploring somatic stem cell homeostasis and ageing, stem cell-niche interactions, and stem cells in cancer.
