-------- Original Message --------
Dear all,
I am delighted to announce that David Scadden is going to give a
seminar here at Imperial College South Kensington campus on
October 25th, at 4pm (details and campus map attached). I hope you
will be interested in/able to attend the seminar and that you will
be happy to forward this message to students and researchers in
your groups and departments.
This is a very rare and exciting opportunity to meet the co-funder
and director of the Harvard Stem Cell Institute, Harvard
Department of Stem Cell Biology and Massachusetts General Hospital
Center for Regenerative Medicine (and the list of his titles
continues long). David Scadden has been studying haematopoietic
stem cells for many years and is particularly known in the stem
cell field for providing the first evidence of the nature of the
haematopoietic stem cell niche in 2003. Since then he has led
research focusing on cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic regulation
of haematopoietic stem cell function both in health and disease.
Some of his most recent work, which is the subject of his talk,
explores how mutant niches can support clonal evolution of cancer.
Drinks will be available right after the seminar and will provide
the opportunity to meet with David face to face.
I hope you can join!
Best wishes
Cristina
