Stem Cell Biology

Meeting - Cold Spring Harbor, NY, United States

We are pleased to host the third meeting on Stem Cell Biology, which will begin with 7.30 pm on Tuesday, September 24, 2013 and run through lunch on Saturday, September 28.

The meeting will focus on the basic biology of stem cells and the dynamic interactions between stem cells and their microenvironment or niche. Topics will include the mechanisms controlling stem cell proliferation, differentiation, pluripotency and reprogramming. Emerging concepts about the regulation of multipotent cells during early embryo development, tissue regeneration and tumor progression will be emphasized.

Tentative Topics:
Somatic stem cells and tissue regeneration
Pluripotent stem cells and epigenetic gene regulation
Cellular reprogramming and transdifferentiation
Stem cells in disease modeling and therapy
Lineage determination
Stem cells in model organisms
Stem cell niches/asymmetric stem cell division
Cancer and stem cells
