This online real-time presentation focused on biomaterial delivery vehicles for cells and biologically active molecules used as novel therapeutics

Cells and biologically active macromolecules are increasingly being used as novel therapeutics in diseases for which there are either no or inadequate current therapies. A requirement for their successful use, however, is the development of appropriate delivery vehicles that can provide these cells and macromolecules at the desired time/place, and that can guide the function of the cells in the body that ultimately recreate the desired tissue structure and function. This presentation will provide an overview of biodegradable polymer systems that accomplish these goals by functioning in many respects as synthetic extracellular matrices, and will provide specific examples of the delivery of instructive signals from these systems to affect tissue engineering and regeneration.

The 1½–hour presentation addressed:

  • Advantages of material-based delivery systems for cells and inductive molecules
  • Approaches to regulate the survival and function of transplanted cells by delivery vehicle design
  • polymeric delivery systems
  • of these concepts to bone regeneration and therapeutic angiogenesis


An extensive Q&A session followed the presentation, with worldwide participation

Be Sure to Participate in this Virtual Seminar. You will be able to attend this real-time tutorial from anywhere that you have an Internet connection…from your office or from your conference room.

One Low Registration Fee of $149 entitled you to a “site” registration, which enables you to invite your colleagues and members of your staff to participate, whether gathered around a computer or in a conference room with speakerphone and screen.

It Couldn’t Be Easier! You’ll view the presentation over your Web browser. On a separate telephone line (which you can put on speakerphone), you will hear the audio and be able to ask questions of the presenter. You can also submit questions from your keyboard. Collateral material will be sent to you electronically after the seminar.

Time Well Spent! No travel, no time away. From your office or conference room, this hour-and-a-half seminar will provide you with an authoritative presentation that includes ample time for your questions and discussion. Registrations will be limited to ensure interactive participation
