ESRC-ERC Conference 2014 1:00PM, Tuesday 11 Nov

Global Life Sciences and Bionetworking --
                 Cell Therapy Production, Provision and Policies

Question explored:
What is there between bona fide and rogue stem cell therapy?

Conference Centre, Bramber House, University of Sussex

We would like to invite you to attend the two-day conference on 11-12th November, 2014. This high level international conference is hosted by the Centre for Bionetworking.  Events commence at 1:00pm Tuesday.

Panel speakers announced:
Our keynote speakers are Aditya Bharadwaj, (Research Professor, Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva, and author of Local Cells, Global Science) and Insoo Hyun, (Associate Professor of Bioethics, Case Western Reserve University, USA, and former leader in creation of ISSCR regulation)

We welcome over forty specialists to present on the following panels:

Plenary Panel:
Standard setting, regulation and the authorisation of stem cell therapy provision

Speakers include:
Paolo Bianco, critic of (MSC) therapy providers, University of Rome, Willem Fibbe, Head, Department of Immunotherapy and Blood Transfusion, Leiden University Medical Centre, Hongyun Huang, provider and application of cell therapy, Center of Neurorestoratology, Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital Medical University, China, Kamthorn Pruksananonda, Associate Professor of OB&GYN, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Alok Sharma, Director, NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute, Mumbai, Geeta Shroff, provider of embryonic stem cell therapy, Nutech Mediworld, India

Panel 1:   Resistance and alter-standardization in emerging medicine research: the role of global asymmetries
Panel 2:   How ethics and religion shape stem cell research
Panel 3:   Cord Blood Banking and Bionetworking: Different stakes in different countries
Panel 4:   International life science platforms and bionetworking – Putting back the people in the platform
Panel 5:   Medical and wellness tourism:  bionetworking across boundaries

Focus of the event:
This conference discusses how scientific and non-scientific developments intertwine, how collaboration interlinks with competition, and how established and non-established scientific powers feed and hamper each other in shaping the life sciences.

With a general focus on bionetworking in biomedicine, and a particular focus on regenerative medicine, five subpanels will explore three main themes: cell therapy production (infrastructures, platforms, biomaterials), provision (patient recruitment, therapy services, patient care), and policies (governance, policy-making, standard setting).


Key questions to be addressed include:

  *   What are the nature and scope of interdisciplinary collaboration in the development of regenerative medicine?
  *   What is stem cell tourism? Does it harm naïve patients or form a last chance to recover?
  *   Is the kind of therapy provided in a country determined by its religion, wealth or culture?
  *   Do scientists in different countries develop new standards for the evaluation of innovative cell therapies?
  *   Is umbilical cord blood banking useful? Are public banks better than private ones?
  *   What are the healthcare challenges for advanced cell therapies?

Experts from the natural and social sciences, hospitals, industry, funding agencies, journalism, and NGOs will deliberate how innovative therapies in the life sciences are shaping international healthcare provision, and define its challenges to societies with different standards of health and income.

You can choose from a range of concurrent panel sessions on both days. The conference has various ‘networking’ moments during break-times and at the farewell reception.
