STEM CELLS

Therapeutic Outlook For Central Nervous System Disorders

First International Conference, which will be held on June 17, 2015 at the Pomeranian Medical University in Szczecin.

Invitation

On behalf of the Organizing Committee we would like to invite you to the 1th International Conference “Stem Cells: Therapeutic Outlook For Central Nervous System Disorders”, which will be held on June 17, 2015 at the Pomeranian Medical University in Szczecin.

The aim of the event is to popularize innovative methods of cell therapy, facilitating access to knowledge in the discipline of modern experimental and clinical neurobiology, exchange of experience and development of scientific cooperation.

The Conference will present the latest achievements and news about the modern cell therapy and regenerative medicine for central nervous system disorders discussed by leading experts in the field. This meeting has been thought to become a forum for exchange of information and verification of the range of use of various diagnostic and therapeutic methods.
