Stem Cell Medicine and Public Policy

This two-day course on stem cell medicine and its public policy implications was held at Hinxton Hall Conference Centre, Hinxton, Cambridge . The course included lectures and workshops led by distinguished clinicians and academics, and focused on the medical uses of stem cells (such as in the treatment of blood diseases and diabetes), national and international regulations governing stem cell research and medicine, the role of industry in this field, and intellectual property rights and stem cells. Participants also explored some of the ethical issues facing individuals and society as stem cell medicine continues to progress. For further information, please visit: http://www.cgkp.org.uk.
