2022 Frontiers in Stem Cell & Organoid Medicine Symposium

Frontiers in Stem Cell & Organoid Medicine Symposium will take place on March 24-25, 2022. Due to continuous rise of the omicron variant in the Ohio region, the Symposium will be held virtually.

This international symposium, co-sponsored by The Center for Stem Cell & Organoid Medicine (CuSTOM) and RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (BDR), as well as a number of leading biotechnology companies, will focus on recent breakthroughs and acceleration of clinical translation, and will feature top academic researchers, industry scientists, as well as junior investigators who are emerging leaders in the field.

The symposium will include topics from basic research to clinical and commercial translation of iPS cell and organoid technology. Workshop sessions will focus on major hurdles and opportunities in Organoid Medicine.
