Analysts Predict Robust Growth for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine
The promise of stem cells and regenerative medicine discoveries and their potential to transform the treatment of disease, continues to drive biological research and technology development in the life sciences.
The fact that analysts predict that a market based on stem cell therapies could grow anywhere from $10-30 billion by 2010 makes it vital to gain a better understanding of how this science will advance the future of healthcare.
Considering this need, the Strategic Research Institute will bring together global thought leaders from academic and industrial research for two days of focused scientific discussion around emerging discoveries in stem cells and regenerative medicine.
The conference, scheduled for October 16-17th in Pittsburgh, will explore developments in: discovery cells, discovery enabling materials, pre-clinical development, clinical development, new technologies, commercialization & investment opportunities and regulatory issues.
Presenting companies and institutions include: Advanced Cell Technology, Arteriocyte, Avlar BioVentures, Celgene, Cellerant Therapeutics, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research/US-FDA, Eli Lilly, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Geron, Intercytex, McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine, Novocell, Pfizer, Pittsburgh Lifesciences Greenhouse, Pittsburgh Tissue Engineering Initiative, Plasticell, Proteus Venture Partners, Q Therapeutics, Reeve-Irvine Research Center, Rodman & Renshaw, Stem Cell Therapeutics Corp., The Biologics Consulting Group and the University of Wisconsin at Madison.
Early bird pricing ends Friday September 1, 2006, so people interested in attending are encouraged to register early.
