PROGRAM INFORMATION

Session 1 (2025 June 23 - June 25)
 - The 3rd Single Cell and Spatial Omics Korea Workshop
 - Our 3rd Single Cell and Spatial Omics Workshop brings together leading researchers from Korea and abroad to advance our understanding of cells and tissues through single-cell analysis and spatial technologies. Through research talks, speakers will present both new methods for analyzing individual cells, cell populations, and tissue organization at high resolution, as well as key biological findings from their application. The workshop offers a platform for scientists to exchange ideas and build connections within the Korean research community and beyond.

Session 2 (2025 June 25 - June 28)
 - 2025 IBS-SyNRGE: Advancing Synergy among Next-Generation Researchers in Genome Engineering, Stem Cell Biology, and Cell Therapy
 - The 2025 IBS-SyNRGE conference is designed to bring together and empower next-generation researchers working at the intersection of genome engineering, stem cell biology, and cell therapy. By advancing collaboration across these transformative disciplines, this event aims to spark innovative ideas, accelerate breakthroughs, and highlight cutting-edge research. Through keynote lectures, interactive sessions, and networking opportunities with leading experts, attendees will gain valuable insights, forge new collaborations, and help shape the future of regenerative medicine and biotechnology.
