About EuroStemCell - the European Consortium for Stem Cell Research
EuroStemCell - the European Consortium for Stem Cell Research - was an Integrated Project funded under the EU's Sixth Framework Programme.
EuroStemCell finished on 31 January 2008. At the project's wrap-up meeting in Brussels, which included a briefing at the European Parliament, Commisioner Janez Potocnik said:
The work of the European Consortium for Stem Cell Research is an outstanding success story...It is an example of the successful integration of science, communication, ethics and training. And it demonstrates how European science can become a world-wide reference in a particular field. (download the full speech)
During EuroStemcell's four-year duration, more than 100 researchers from 27 of Europe's best stem cell labs tackled the basic, applied, clinical and ethical research needed to build the foundations for regenerative medicine. Supporting this work we developed state-of-the-art solutions: new methodologies, media and tools to benefit the whole research community.
EuroStemCell's training and networking programme helped build a strong European base for stem cell research, and our annual Stem Cells & Regenerative Medicine summer school in Hydra will continue to train the next generation of stem cell scientists.
