Building Novel Molecular Designs and Basic Biological Discoveries into Successful Medical Technologies

The 2017 GRC and GRS on Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering will bring together world-class clinicians, scientists and engineers to discuss materials-related strategies for disease remediation and tissue repair. The theme of the 2017 conference will be "Building Novel Molecular Designs and Basic Biological Discoveries into Successful Medical Technologies" and will feature multidisciplinary presentations by bioengineers, chemists and clinical scientists on emerging topics in immunology and stem cells as well as basic and translational aspects of biomaterials science. Session topics include: Immunology, Novel Molecular Biomaterials, New Materials for Delivery, Stem Cell Biology, Polymer Science, Vascular Biology, Clinical Practice, Computation, Translational Research, and Industrial Trends. Additionally we have key committed speakers from fields just beyond the current edges of the Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering field, who we expect will help lead the rest of the attendees more deeply into these fields and who will enrich our scientific culture. The 2017 program also adheres to the GRC directive of holding vigorous formal and informal discussions between researchers at all career stages. There will be poster sessions organized on topical themes to match the session topics.
