Symposium

[2AS-05]【J】Frontiers of multicellular tissue dormancy research and technology development

Thu. Dec 4, 2025 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM JST
Thu. Dec 4, 2025 12:00 AM - 2:00 AM UTC
Room 5(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 3F, 304)
Organizer: Katsuyoshi Takaoka (Tokushima university), Mizuki HONDA (Hiroshima University)
The phenomenon of dormancy in multicellular tissues, exemplified by developmental diapause in mammalian embryos, nematode dormancy, cancer latency, and tissue stem cell quiescence, is observed across a wide range of biological processes. In previous studies, research on topics such as “developmental diapause," “tissue stem cell quiescence," and “cancer dormancy" has been conducted within distinct and specialized fields. This symposium aims to unite researchers from diverse areas of dormancy science and developers of innovative technologies to explore the commonalities and variations of dormancy in multicellular tissues from a holistic perspective.
