Conference Topics

  • Bioreactors and Bioprocesses for Cell Expansion and Differentiation
  • Defining and Eradicating Cancer Stem Cells
  • Engineering Approaches to Endogenous Repair
  • High Throughput Microfluidic Screening Platforms
  • Intercellular Signaling and the Engineered Niche
  • iPS Cell Reprogramming and Disease Models

Biologists and engineers are working together on fundamental and translational research in fields that will impact human health in the coming years. This Gordon-style conference will explore novel strategies to 'Engineer Cell Fate', emphasising how efforts in stem cell biology and engineering can combine to aid in the development of novel therapies. By bringing together the bioengineering and stem cell biology communities this conference should catalyze progress toward innovative solutions to problems in regenerative medicine.
