The Adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine (MSC 2007) will focus on technological and clinical advances of the use of mesenchymal stem cells derived from a variety of tissues (such as bone marrow, fat, cord blood, cord matrix, and amniotic fluid). The target audience is multi-fold: new and experienced investigators in the MSC field, students (graduate and post-doctoral), physicians and commercial entities interested in therapeutic opportunities with these cell types. Junior investigators and students will be given a venue to present their research in poster session and invited presentations. The goal is to provide a forum for exchange and discussion for this area of translational regenerative medicine.
What is the focus of MSC2007?
The meeting will focus on the isolation, characterization, purity, plasticity and clinical uses of adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) from a variety of human and animal tissues including bone marrow, fat, cord blood and matrix, and placenta including amniotic fluid. Platform and poster sessions will emphasize the state-of-the-art technologies and clinical utility of these cell preparations within the context of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Two invited lectures in each Session will be from national and international thought-leaders and 4-6 platform lectures will be chosen from submitted abstracts.
