2010 Maryland Stem Cell Research Symposium

Maryland TEDCO and Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund has partnered with NIST, NIH, Johns Hopkins University, and the University System of Maryland to create the most up to date symposium on stem cell research that will facilitate State and Federal collaboration to advance groundbreaking life science research.

The meeting will be a scientific research symposium with scientific presentations and poster sessions. It will be open to the scientific community and the general public to allow them to view the resarch supported by the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund and Federal agencies.
