Synthetic Stem Cell Biology is an emerging field of life sciences research that utilizes stem cells and advanced bioengineering approaches to capture dynamic, multi-scale behaviors of cells and organs in the animal body. Stem cell-derived organs and developmental models have opened up new and exciting opportunities for studying and understanding the human body. The ability of such models to generate large-scale datasets aligns with the recent emergence of AI-based biology that interprets genomic programs. Our symposium will bring together leading national and international scientists in Synthetic Stem Cell Biology to discuss the latest developments in this exciting new field at the crossroads of many emerging technologies.
