The 10th International Meeting will take place at the conference venue “Eurogress” in Aachen, Germany. Both conference days will be filled with lectures by internationally renowned stem cell researchers, a large poster session and additional offers such as a "Meet the Expert Table" or a "Women's Career Lunch". Of course, there will also be a large industrial exhibition as usual and plenty of time for networking. A networking event is planned for the evening of 8 June 2020 in the Aula Carolina, a former monastery church in Aachen city center.

The scientific program will consist of eight different sessions, for which Ali Brivanlou (The Rockefeller University), Christine L. Mummery (Leiden University) and Marius Wernig (Stanford University), among others, have already confirmed their attendance. We are particularly pleased that Alta Charo, a renowned Professor of Law and Bioethics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and one of the leading advocates of embryonic stem cell research, will join us for a session on ethical, legal, and social aspects of stem cell research. We are very happy that, in total, eleven internationally renowned scientists already agreed to give a lecture.

As in previous years, junior scientists can also apply for a short talk. Abstracts can be submitted in the course of the regular registration process.

Registration for the conference via the website of the International Meeting will be activated at the beginning of 2020. In cooperation with the Aachen Convention, an allotment of hotel rooms has been reserved and can already be booked via this link.
