Welcome to:

The WRM will be held in historic Leipzig, Thursday, 29 October through Saturday, 31 October 2009. For information on registration visit the conference homepage. The WRM offers an unparalleled opportunity to learn about the latest advances in regenerative medicine, clinical care and regulatory affairs, while networking and collaborating with more than 900 colleagues from around the world.
Hear from influential leaders at the World Conference on Regenerative Medicine.
Professor Ian Wilmut of the Scottish Center for Regenerative Medicine, who was significantly involved in the cloning of the sheep Dolly in 1997, will hold a special lecture at the opening ceremony of the WRM. He will talk about the state of the art in stem cell research and drug discovery.
Professor Chris Mason focuses on advances in regenerative medicine and how stem cells can be translated into regenerative medicine products. We are happy to announce that Chris Mason will additionally moderate a part of the social evening of the WRM in the “Spiegelzelt” (mirror tent). Don’t miss it
Professor Arnold Kriegstein, Director of the Institute for Regeneration Medicine of the University of California will present his latest findings on the dynamics of neural stem and progenitor cells in cortical development and therapeutics.
Professor Giulio Cossu of the Stem Cell Research Center Milan (Italy) will highlight clinical trials planned for cell therapy of muscular dystrophy.
Further cutting edge keynote lectures include topics on stem cells and their therapeutic application, immune regulation and tolerance induction, tissue engineering, biomaterials and scaffolds as well as regulatory affairs and funding for regenerative medicine. This is your chance to attend interesting sessions and meet regenerative medicine experts from all over the world!
Furthermore important representatives of Pluristem, Johnson & Johnson, Invitrogen, Organogenesis and Batelle will be giving scientific presentations. Find out industry’s perspective on regenerative medicine!
Broaden your horizon at the affiliated meetings.
Regenerative Medicine with its array of trend-setting subjects that span from Tissue Engineering to Nanomedicine is a rapidly growing field. However, the synergy between regenerative medicine and other scientific fields offers mutually beneficially points of contact for each research area. Therefore, we are happy to announce the following affiliated meetings: the Fraunhofer Life Science Symposium on Rapid Prototyping and Scaffolds, the 1st International Meeting of the Veterinary Stem Cell Consortium, the Forum Bioinformatics and the HHL Healthcare Challenge “Future Healthcare” of the Leipzig Graduate School of Management.
Abstract deadline is 15 July 2009.
Participants are invited to submit electronic abstracts for either poster or oral presentation on the main topics of the conference or affiliated meetings. Abstracts will be published as a supplement of Regenerative Medicine, the world’s leading journal in the stem cell and regenerative medicine sector (Future Science Group). Take the opportunity to present your latest findings and click here for abstract submission.
