Abstract submission is now OPEN! 2014 eCM XV: Cartilage & Disc: Repair and Regeneration
16th – 18th June 2014, Davos, Switzerland
Abstract Deadline: April 11th

Endorsed by the ORS!

Articular cartilage and intervertebral disc have many structural and functional similarities although they are different tissues. Despite their well defined structure, repair remains a clinical challenge. In order to meet this challenge, a full understanding of the biological processes, from development to degradation, is necessary. This conference aims to address precisely these topics while exploring issues such as cell mediated repair, biomaterials and clinical approaches. The outcome should be an increased understanding of the topic and an emphasis of the need to improve the interaction between scientists & clinicians.

With keynote speakers including:

Prof. Charles Archer, ​Prof. Mats Brittberg, Prof. Di Chen, Prof. Farshid Guilak, Prof. Clark Hung, Prof. Susan.J.Kimber, Prof. Christopher Little, Prof. Joji Mochida, Dr. Niamh Nowlan, Prof. Andrew Pitsillides, Prof. Makarand Risbud, Prof. Peter J Roughley, Prof. Gerjo van Osch
