 | EuroSciCon's focus on novel methods and their applications was at the fore in this informative London meeting, held on the 4th April 2006, covering some of the latest findings on regulatory T cells. The popularity of this field was reflected by the number of delegates with a lively audience of 150 research scientists filling the Birkbeck lecture theatre. Talks covered the methodology of regulatory T cell isolation, quantification and expansion and data were presented from the fields of reproductive immunology, autoimmunity, inflammation (collitis) and transplantation keywords: | ||||

| On the 17th of November 2006 Euroscicon hosted a conference entitled ‘Tissue Engineering Today, Not Tomorrow’ at the MI Centre in London. The conference covered some of the key issues in tissue engineering including the use of embryonic and mesenchymal stem cells, the development of new generations of biomaterials and scaffolds, and the use of methods which will allow the implantation of tissue engineered constructs without evoking an immune response.
The conference was chaired by Professor Anne Dickinson from the University of Newcastle and was opened by Dame Julia Polak from Imperial College, London. Dame Polak presented an overview of the major issues in regenerative medicine, from the choice of cells and scaffolds through to methods of scale-up, the choices for cell delivery and the requirements of pre-clinical and clinical phase applications.

| / Advances in fish disease, diagnosis and treatment | 0:01:33 | 128kbps | 44100 | 1.42 MB | |
| On October 6th, 2006 a group of experts on fish disease, diagnosis and treatment assembled in London to share recent advances in the field. Fish disease significantly impacts environmental balance and commercial productivity on a global basis. Losses have high economic consequences, especially in areas where fishing or aquatic farming and culture are important community-supporting industries.

| / Glycomics: Challenges and Technologies | 0:02:45 | 128kbps | 44100 | 2.53 MB | |
| While in the last few years genomic and proteomic projects advanced uninterruptedly, understanding glycans still prsents several difficulties: they have a non-template driven biosynthesis, there is no system for the amplification of carbohydrates, and their characterization is still complicated. Moreover, the glycosylation patterns are complex and carbohydrate homeostasis requires considerable cellular control. Fortunately, Glycomics is advancing: the new technologies developed, the optimized experimental strategies and the Bioinformatics tools are making their move. On November 28, 2006 Euroscicon Conference “Glycomics: Challenges and Technologies” was held in London, and depicted an optimistic view of the advances in the area.
