Description:
This session focuses on the application of metabolic engineering approaches to tissue engineering, organ regeneration and new therapies. We invite submissions on topics including, but not limited to, manipulation of cells for enhanced expansion and differentiation; methods for ameliorating transplantation rejection; stem cell engineering for targeted differentiation and expansion; novel delivery strategies for tissue engineering; systems and synthetic biology approaches for tissue engineering applications; engineering microbes for therapeutic delivery; manipulation of cell signaling for tissue engineering.
