Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : |
It was not difficult to buy ticket , but since I did not have credit card, paying for hotel reservation, membership in ISSCR and registeration was difficult |

Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : |
ISSCR provided me an opportunity to share my own data, learn from peers, and discover global advances within the stem cell field. The topics included regeneration and engraftment, disease modeling, therapy with stem cells, pluripotency and mechanisms of reprogramming, immunology and stem cells, making tissues and organs. I chose to attend the presentations regarding pluripotency and differention into different cell types espicially cardiomyocyte. I had also the chance to meet and talk to well-known professors in stem cell. |
