Human embryonic stem (hES) cells represent a foundational platform in stem cell science. Their capacity for sustained self-renewal and pluripotencythe ability to differentiate into all cell types in the body enables critical research into human development, disease mechanisms, and the development of new regenerative medicines.

The Developmental Biology GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages.
