Stem Cells on the Mesa

Stem Cells on the Mesa

Each year the La Jolla Torrey Pines Mesa region leads California in grants and funding from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine. What better place to host Stem Cells on the Mesa – an one-day symposium that draws together the San Diego pioneers who are responsible for advancing research into cures for debilitating diseases and injuries.

This invitation-only program attracts leading scientists, life sciences business executives, and government officials. The aim is to explore the imminent scientific, ethical and business challenges facing stem cell research today. The program is designed around panel discussions that explore topics ranging from basic science and technologies to regulatory considerations.

The Symposium is hosted by the San Diego Consortium for Regenerative Medicine (SDCRM) and managed by CONNECT and in partnership with The Science Network. Established in March 2006, SDCRM is comprised of UC San Diego, Burnham Institute for Medical Research, Salk Institute for Biological Studies and The Scripps Research Institute. The consortium marshals the intellectual resources of these four world leaders in life sciences research, bringing scientists from each institution together to conduct joint research and training programs in stem cell research.
