EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Organoids: Modelling Organ Development and Disease in 3D Culture

EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Organoids: Modelling Organ Development and Disease in 3D Culture is organized by European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). This Online Course will be held from Oct 21 - 24, 2020.

What is the significance of the EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Organoids: Modelling Organ Development and Disease in 3D Culture CME course?

Course Description:

EMBL is committed to sharing the research advances and sustaining scientific interaction throughout the coronavirus pandemic. The organization announced that the symposium is going virtual and invite you to join us online. The virtual symposium comprises talks from invited speakers, short talk presenters, digital poster sessions, and networking opportunities.

The ability to provide human tissues from stem cells in 3D culture has the capacity to revolutionize the drug development process and regenerative medicine. Fabricating on a long tradition of cell and developmental biology knowledge, organoids resembling the diversity of human tissues have been generated. This symposium will join together the leading researchers in this field to ascertain a novel research community and expose parallels within various tissue models.

The goal of this meeting is to unite together researchers from various fields to intensify our understanding of how organoids can be developed and maintained, how they can be utilized to examine the disease and how we might ultimately use them to renovate and renew human organ tissue.
