Nature Medicine and the Volkswagen Foundation present: Herrenhausen Symposium on Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine What are the most important problems to overcome to make progress in the fields of stem cells and regenerative medicine? Nature Medicine, in consultation with the research community, has identified a series of roadblocks to translational research on stem cells and regenerative medicine. A subset of leaders in the field will attend the Herrenhausen Symposium and participate in an interdisciplinary discussion that will point in the direction of solutions to the greatest challenges that the fields of stem cells and regenerative medicine face. The symposium will be a closed event. In addition to the invited speakers, 10-15 attendees will be chosen to participate on the basis of their application for admission. Preference will be given to young and early-career investigators (assistant professors, lecturers, research associates, postdoctoral researchers and clinical fellows) who are currently working in related areas.
