Summer School on Regenerative Medicine and Molecular Therapy

BRFAA, Athens, Greece

21-09-2013 to 30-09-2013

We would like to invite you to the Summer School on Regenerative Medicine and Molecular Therapy, to be held 21-30 September 2013, in Athens, Greece (Biomedical Research Foundation). Regenerative medicine is the process of creating living, functional tissues to repair or replace tissue or organ function lost due to age, disease, damage, or congenital defects. This field holds the promise of regenerating damaged tissues and organs in the body by stimulating previously irreparable organs to heal themselves. Regenerative medicine also empowers scientists to grow tissues and organs in the laboratory and safely implant them when the body cannot heal itself. Importantly, regenerative medicine has the potential to solve the problem of the shortage of organs available through donation compared to the number of patients that require life-saving organ transplantation.(U.S.A. NIH Fact Sheets, Regenerative Medicine, n.d.. Available from: ) If you are interested in these greatly emerging fields and would like to get insights into them, review our website (http://rmmt2013.org) and apply online by 29 March. Successful applicants will be notified by 10 April 2013. The thematology will be covering: Biological and Molecular basis of Regenerative Medicine, Stem Cell Research, Therapeutic applications, Tissue Regeneration, Genetic manipulation of stem cells, iPS technology, Biomaterials, Stem cell Banks, Biology and Technology of Molecular Therapy, Lab animals, Regulations oversight and Εthics. Experts in the fields, will be covering the fundamentals and reach to more advanced level. Participants will also have the opportunity to get lab experience and be instructed on Scientific Writing. They will, also, be assigned into groups, a special theme, on which they are expected to make a relevant short presentation on the last day. The best presentation is going to be awarded. Of course, time for Social Programme, is part of the agenda, including but not limited to: Welcome dinner, tour to the Acropolis and the Acropolis new Museum, Day tour to seaside spots, Greek night, National food and drinking party and Walking tour to the Ancient market, Zappeion, Kallimarmaron stadium, Hadrian's Arch, etc..
