Dr. Imamura got the poster award at Cheminas 46. He presented his research for generating an artificial blastocyst, namely “blastoid”, from human pluripotent stem cells by applying 3D hydrogel cellular environments. Congratulations, Satoshi!! And thank you very much for our collaborators and posters’ audience.
Dr. Kamei is now appointed as a visiting associate professor of Biology and Bioengineering, Divisions of Science and Engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD). If you are interested, please visit the website and contact with me.
