Description of the project:
CorEuStem is formed upon recognizing the need to connect core facilities in European research centers and universities that provide services in such fields as disease modelling, embryology, and novel regenerative therapeutic approaches, to keep track of all advancements in cutting-edge technologies. This network is composed of experts in stem cell, differentiation, organoids, and gene editing technologies with the aim of joining forces and establishing the first European network for harmonizing procedures and protocols, to organise joint training schools for implementing new cutting-edge technologies emerging in the field and to become a reference point in stem cells, differentiation, organoids and gene editing in Europe and beyond. The IMR team, having extensive experience in adult stem cell research, has embraced the opportunity to become a part of this network of experts, hoping of both gaining insights in emerging technologies and providing a competent input to the consortium.
