Regenerative Biology and Applications: Cell Differentiation, Tissue Organization and Biomedical Engineering (T3) is organized by Keystone Symposia on Molecular and Cellular Biology and would be held during Oct 15 - 19, 2017 at The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong, China.
Topics
• Pluripotency and Differentiation of Stem Cells
• Molecular Regulation of Stem Cells
• Tissue Organization (The Stem Cell Niche)
• Tissue Organization (Generating Tissue-Specific Cells)
• Tissue Organization (Physiological and Pathophysiological
• Development of Organ Systems) I & II
• Stem Cells for Biomedical Engineering
• Biomedical Engineering for Stem Cells
Description
This four-day Keystone Symposia conference focuses on three important aspects of the rapidly developing area of regenerative biology: 1) The biology of the stem cell, with a focus on single-cell transcriptomics, deduction of cell lineage, pluripotency control and epigenetic regulation; 2) The tissue level, including the stem cell niche, organ generation, organoids and dysregulation of these processes in disease; and 3) Biomedical engineering and various types of disease modeling.
The overall goal of the conference is to provide both late-breaking data for the experts in the fields as well as overviews in areas that will interest a broad scientific community. Across the three main themes, the aim is to blend discussions on a range of organs, such as liver, heart, bone and skin, with talks that cover novel tissue engineering and organoid biology principles.
Additional Details will be posted as soon as they are available.
