The Science of Integrated Human Embryo Models
An ISSCR Digital Webinar.
Program Description: Stem cell-derived embryo models are self-organized, three-dimensional structures that mimic the developmental processes that occur in early embryos. These model systems can provide critical insight into early development and aspects of infertility. Recently, advances in human integrated embryo models, which contain embryonic and extra-embryonic cell types necessary to potentially achieve the cellular complexity to undergo further development, have been published and are rapidly driving this field forward. This program will examine the science, methods, and future of this dynamic area of stem cell research.
The webinar will take place on 31 October 2023 at 10:30 a.m.-12:30p.m. EDT
