Target Audience
Cardio-thoracic surgeons interested in basic science, regulatory affairs involved in applied research, and the translation of ATMP- and secretome based regenerative medicine. Basic Scientists, Biologists, Biotechnologists, Residents and Fellows of all surgical specialities are most welcome.

Learning objectives
Regenerative Medicine has become the mantra of multiple innovation driven academic institutions and the nidus of multiple commercial enterprises. Academia is working on the modification and broadening of scientific insights in relation to advanced therapy medical products (ATMPs) – the technical term for “stem cell therapy” and small molecule therapy. In addition participants will learn about “paracrine factors” and their regenerative ability from in vitro to preclinical research applications. A further objective of this symposium is the description of the complex interplay between regulatory affairs and basic science in order to transfer scientific research to the patients in need.
