Inauguration of FSSCR

The French Society for Stem Cell Research (FSSCR) is a learned society intended to federate the French researchers on stem cells. It will be created at its first General Assembly to be held November 7, 2016 at the Pasteur Institute.

SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON STEM CELLS AND CANCER

Dear Colleague,

Embryo development, cancer progression and tissue regeneration have in common a strong dependency on stem and progenitor cells. What are the shared characteristics and differences between those embryonic, cancer and adult stem cells is still an open question. Are cancer stem cells derived from adult stem cells or differentiated cancer cells that acquired stem cell properties? What determines the potency of embryonic and adult stem cells? These questions and many others await a better understanding of stem cell properties in different contexts.

To address this challenge, the second conference “Stem Cells and Cancer” to be held in Lyon on Nov. 15-16, 2016 is aimed at bringing together world experts in the fields of embryonic, adult and cancer stem cells. The synergy created by the reunion of leaders at the crossroad of those research themes will highlight novel approaches to address the important challenges associated with stem cells biology and therapeutics.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming you to Lyon in November!

Best wishes,
The Organising Committee

Inauguration of FSSCR

The opening day of the FSSCR be held at the Pasteur Institute, November 7, 2016.

We thank Shahragim Tajbakhsh for his involvement in the organization of this event.

The following speakers have been invited :

• Jean-Claude Ameisen for intervention on stem cells and the ethical issues raised by their use
• Michele de Luca for a presentation on his research in regenerative medicine.

A representative of the German Stem Cell Network or EuroStemCell will share with us a feedback on the creation of their institutions.
The meeting is supported by ITMO BCDE ( Multi-Thematic Institute “Cellular biology, development and evolution”).

We especially invite young researchers (doctoral and post-doctoral researchers) to come and participate in the creation of this new project.
