This is an unique opportunity for all those involved in science and research to come together with medicine, dentistry, veterinary surgery and allied health disciplines to promote the worldwide advancement of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine; in particular the integration of current laboratory technologies and clinical needs in our region.
We offer our delegates innovative topics and stimulating clinical debates which will be led by a balance of international and national speakers and the opportunity for industry to contribute. The meeting will pay particular interest to expectations, directions and goals for the progress of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine by scientists and clinicians over the next half decade.
The topic areas will include:
* Biomaterials and scaffolds
* Nanotechnological advances in tissue engineering
* Gene therapy and gene regulation
* Advances in stem cells science
* Immunological considerations and modulation in tissue engineered implants
* Bioreactors and mechanotransduction
* Commercialisation of tissue engineering implants
* Regulatory issues in tissue engineering
* Stem cell based therapies:
o Cardiovascular
o Musculoskeletal
o Neural/Organs/Skin
o Haematopoietic system
* Biomaterial based therapies:
o Cardiovascular
o Musculoskeletal
o Neural/Organs/Skin
* Clinical integration of therapies in medicine, dentistry and veterinary science
