Regenerative Medicine: From Biology to Therapy

Regenerative Medicine: From Biology to Therapy

Conference - Hinxton, Cambridge, United Kingdom

Few topics in contemporary medicine have attracted more attention than stem cells and their potential for enabling the discovery of new regenerative therapies. The aim of this new Wellcome Trust Scientific Conference is to understand the biology that underpins the success or failure of regeneration, and to clarify the relationship between stem cell biology and regenerative biology so that both can be fully exploited to treat disease.

This meeting is aimed at scientists involved in developmental and regenerative biology, stem cell research, translational medicine, or clinical trials.

Topics will include:
• Regeneration biology: lessons from phylogeny
• Regeneration and therapeutics: the spectrum of regenerative efficiency in mammalian tissues
• Non stem cell-based regenerative biology
• Therapeutic regeneration by (stem) cell transplantation
• Reprogramming and transdifferentiation
• ES/iPS cell technologies
