The joint ESGCT/ISSCR Congress registration and abstract submission is now open!

Register HERE for this year's European Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ESGCT) and the International Society of Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) joint meeting, organised in collaboration with ABCD, which takes place in Florence, Italy, from 18-21 October. This year's Congress features a host of exciting presentations and speakers, including Hans Clevers and George Daley. The initial programme can be viewed HERE. An Early Bird registration discount is available until 30 June. And all abstracts must be submitted by 17 July.

ABCD will support the attendance of italian speakers, junior members and ABCD-ASCB junior co-members by partially covering travel & accommodation costs to a good number of participating ABCD members. But hurry up: the early bird catches the worm!

The ESGCT Annual Congress is attended by nearly 1000 participants from 40 countries, and provides an opportunity for scientists, clinicians and industry professionals to share new data, learn from peers, and discover global advances within the Gene and Cell Therapy field. We are delighted to be hosting the congress in the Palazzo dei Congressi e Palazzo degli Affari located in central Florence.

We strongly advise you to book your accommodation as soon as possible as prices will increase closer to the congress. Hotel reservations can be made through our dedicated Congress website at http://www.esgct-isscr2016.com/hotels/.  We are advised that Florence is a very popular destination and hotels book out quickly.
