Workshop 09: Placental stem cells
Tracks
Session Name
| Friday, September 8, 2023 |
| 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM |
| Batten Room 1 |
Details
Organisers:
A/Prof Jo James (University of Auckland, NZ)
Dr Francesca Soncin (UCSD, USA)
Aim:
to consider how we could improve current in vitro placental models by better defining the nature and role of placental stem cell and progenitor populations in vivo, and the impact of in vitro conditions (media/matrix) on their phenotype and differentiation capacity.
