Stem cell-based modelling of development and disease
Posted by The Symposium Office, on 27 July 2021
This one-day conference will focus on stem cell-based models of development and disease. Taking place on Thursday 9th December 2021 the day will run from 9 am – 5.30 pm GMT and will take place virtually. There will also be a virtual conference social from 5:30 -6:30 pm GMT.
Stem cell-based models of embryo development have been flourishing over the past decade. These model systems recapitulate in culture fundamental aspects of mammalian development from gametogenesis, peri-implantation development to organogenesis. Critically, they enable experimental approaches to unravel the molecular basis of human developmental disorders including infertility.
This Genesis Research Trust Symposium aims to bring together and grow the community working in stem cell modelling and related fields to share ideas and discuss key topics for future research, including the opportunities and limitations of embryo models and the emergence of sophisticated bioengineering tools that can advance biomedical discoveries.
