SCSCC - The Southern California Stem Cell Consortium

These meetings are intended for any individual whose work or interests intersect with stem cell biology and regeneration or their biological underpinning—whether or not (s)he holds a formal affiliation with the Institute. Even if you personally cannot attend, please encourage your lab members to do so. These meetings are meant to embrace not only the SBP community, although SBP will host them, but

also the broader Southern California biomedical research community. The meetings will be very interactive with the goal not only of being educational (including constructive critique of experiments and projects), but also of fostering collaborations. It is our hope to be able to apply for an NIH Training Grant sometime in the next calendar year and, as you know, the most competitive applications are those that already have an educational and interactive program in place. We are gratified that so many investigators outside of the immediate SBP family have been attending. Ideally, the training program will continue attract the interest and participation of members of the broader Southern California academic and biotech community.
