This EMBO Workshop in Japan will feature Single Cell Biology which is now bringing about big impact not only on life science but also on healthcare. The Human Cell Atlas aiming to elucidate the human body at cellular-resolution level is progressing in the world. Projects to analyze tissues from various diseases with single cell technologies are progressing in Japan and Asia, towards accurate diagnosis health care and new drug discovery.
The workshop covers all topics in single cell biology including cancer biology, computational biology, development biology including ageing, imaging, new technologies, and single cell immunology. leading experts in each topic will give lectures and discuss the latest findings. In addition to the invited speakers, oral talks and poster presentations will be chosen from the submitted abstracts. The meeting will bring together biologists, clinicians, bioinformaticians, from academic, medical and healthcare industries and facilitate discussions and knowledge sharing on recent research advancements in single cell biology.
