Stem Cell Committee
The Stem Cell committee is responsible for the creation of an Annual Meeting symposium and other programs with a focus on stem cell biology and stem cell applications that are relevant for cell and gene therapies. The committee’s scope includes the following areas: using allogeneic or autologous pluripotent stem cells as a target for ex vivo gene and cell therapies, using allogeneic or autologous adult stem cells as targets for ex vivo and in vivo gene and cell therapies (for example, hematopoietic stem cells), and applying basic knowledge from stem cell and regenerative biology to target non-stem cells but to achieve durable treatment effects.
