CiRA International Symposium 2013 Raising the next generation of stem cell research
The Kyoto University Center for iPS cell Research and Application (CiRA) organizes an international symposium annually, to promote the worldwide dissemination of its research results and to advance iPS cell research. In the 2013 symposium, we plan to hold not only lectures but poster sessions to increase opportunities for discussion among participants. All stem cell researchers and students are welcome to participate.
