Join the World Stem Cell Summit for a virtual conference …

Every year Bernie Siegel and his team at the World Stem Cell Summit (WSCS) put together a conference that highlights various topics in the stem cell and regenerative medicine field. This year, because of the coronavirus pandemic, the conference has adopted an entirely virtual format.

The Virtual World Stem Cell Summit, as it is known, is a global event, broad in scope, covering a wide variety of topics and issues. It is designed to breakdown silos, expand our knowledge about stem cell research, even to help create collaborations between researchers and patient advocates. The overall goal is simple, to improve health and deliver cures.
