Room C(5F Small Hall2)
Chairpersons:Aiko Sada(Kyushu Univ.), Yusuke Ono(Kumamoto Univ.)
The cells of living organisms possess a remarkable potential to maintain tissue homeostasis and facilitate regeneration. Although the field is rapidly evolving-from understanding basic mechanisms to developing medical applications-fundamental questions remain: What makes stem cells stem cells? This symposium will unite leading researchers in stem cell and regenerative biology to explore the extraordinary potential of organisms. By integrating pioneering biology and innovative technologies, we will discuss cellular heterogeneity and plasticity in tissue homeostasis, regenerative processes, and disease mechanisms. Our aim is to deepen our understanding of stem cells and tissue regenerative abilities, paving the way for new concepts in developmental principles and their applications in regenerative medicine.
