World Conference on Regenerative Medicine

Logo World Conference on Regenerative Medicine

Over the last years the importance of regenerative medicine increased. Today it comprises a huge variety of technological applications in miscellaneous fields of indications. Due to the international divergency in legislation and the related research conditions, there is a superior need for scientific interchange and discussion. The World Conference on Regenerative Medicine (WRM) closes the gap between research and industry and creates an additional benefit for the research location of Germany and Europe. The concept and challenge of bringing together international top scientists from research and industry gives special significance to this event.

The World Conference on Regenerative Medicine with about 1000 participants is organized biannually in the Congress Center Leipzig (CCL). The program combines scientifically first-class lectures and poster presentations as well as a large industry exhibition. Besides, different associations and networks present their latest research and conduct satellite symposiums.

The next World Conference on Regenerative Medicine will take place in 2018. Further information you will find on the event homepage:

The annually occuring Fraunhofer Life Science Symposium (FLS) is organized by the Fraunhofer Institute for Cell Therapy and Immunology IZI in Leipzig. It brings together up to 150 participants from industry, academic and clinical institutions. Topics change each year and allow attendees to discuss new technologies, trends and developments in the field of life sciences. The symposium includes different sessions with lectures, a poster exhibition, and an industry exhibition.

The next Fraunhofer Life Science Symposium will take place 2017. Further information you will find on the event homepage:

International Symposium on Neuroprotection and Neurorepair

Logo International Symposium on Neuroprotection and Neurorepair

The conference series, originated as the "Magdeburg Meeting Series", addresses scientists and clinicians in the expert field of neurological sciences. Based on a broad range of topics, this event offers a platform for the exchange of experience, in particular in the area of neurological degeneration and regeneration. Thematic emphases are on fundamental sciences as well as preclinical research and its consequent translational implementation in adherence with quality assurance measures. We tend not to run more than one lecture event at a time, which underlines our commitment to highly topical issues. The academic exchange of experience is rounded off with about 150 poster contributions and an accompanying industrial exhibition introducing state-of-the-art technologies and methodical developments. The event unites about 250 international scientists. Besides renowned speakers, also junior scientists have their say.

The symposium is organized by the Cell Therapy Unit of the Fraunhofer Institute for Cell Therapy and Immunology IZI. The 10th International Symposium "Neuroprotection and Neurorepair" will be held in Dresden, 2018. For further information please visit the event homepage:
