CONFERENCE OVERVIEW
The provision of Stem Cells and their derived progeny is one of the most promising high impact developments in modern medical science. In pharmaceutical research they have been harnessed to provide a plethora of highly characterised cells for a wide range of applications. More direct applications of stem cells are also enabling the development of a whole new field of therapy, Regenerative Medicine, focusing on the underlying causes of diseases by effectively replacing or regenerating the damaged cells themselves. This conference will highlight state of the art research and technology enabling the provision of stem cells, their differentiation into desired cell types as well as applications as potential therapeutic agents.
