Dear Colleague,

We are honored to invite you to participate in the joint conference of ISRASTEM  2016 and the 6th international stem cell meeting of the Israel Stem Cell Society. The conference will focus on novel developments in stem cells, cell therapy and regenerative medicine in both academia and industry.
The conference and exhibition will take place on April 5th-6th, 2016, at the Intercontinental Conference Center in Tel Aviv, Israel.

This year we combine the unique advantages of the two disciplines to enable the participants to choose and enjoy all aspects of basic and clinical research. Leading researchers from academia, industry, and hospitals will present their recent achievements in technologies and clinical studies discussing their most exciting developments. The program will include basic science and translational sessions in fields such as cardiovascular, cerebrospinal, diabetes, metabolic and hematological diseases, immunotherapy and reconstructive surgery along with sessions on regulatory and production challenges and commercialization. Basic stem cell science sessions will include the biology of pluripotency, hematopoiesis, stem cells in disease, epigenetics of stem cells, programming of adult tissues and stem cells in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The program will consist of plenary lectures by top international scientists and oral presentations in parallel sessions featuring speakers from Israel and abroad. In parallel, a poster session will take place and the latest advances in instrumentation and supporting tools will be presented in the accompanying exhibition.   

We want to personally invite you to participate by submitting an abstract for either oral or poster presentation, by presenting your business in the exhibition in a booth or poster, and of course by attending this unique joint conference.

We look forward to seeing you in April at the conference in Israel.
