The 20th Stem Cell Research Symposium Information

 It is our great honor to announce that the 20th Stem Cell Research Symposium will be held on May 19-20, 2023, at Awaji Yumebutai International Conference Center in Hyogo. Now we have started accepting abstracts and releasing the registration form.
 Our symposium initiated the meeting of hematology and then we continued and expanded discussions about a variety of subjects, including tissue stem cells, mult-/pluri- potent stem cells and so on. It has contributed to establishing an intimate relationship among stem cell biological field community and worked club-like meeting. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our symposium has been under restricted circumstances during the past few years such as cancellation of face to face meeting, and made relationship weak among the members of the researchers. Also, during the blank time, the studies of stem cell biology have considerably changed. So now we have strived to achieve reconstruction of the research networks and strengthen a relationship among researchers in this symposium.
We hope all the members of the symposium will come and join us.
Thank you for your cooperation.
