Stem Cells: A Pathway Through the Maze

Course Content
The course will begin by introducing key concepts in the field which will form the basis for exploring the properties of selected populations of adult and embryonic stem cells.

Later sessions will be devoted to applied topics that are essential to the therapeutic application of stem cell biology before focusing on ethical and regulatory issues and surveying the landscape for patenting and marketing of stem cell therapies.

Target Audience
Research scientists from either industrial or academic sectors, PhD students and healthcare professionals.

Local Organizer

Notes
Many of the lecturers will undoubtedly present some of their more cutting-edge insights which will, we hope, appeal to those with a particular interest in the field and who already come with specialist knowledge.
