After the success of the last conference with the experts from over 30 countries, it is an opportune time to renew contacts and discuss problems of mutual interest in the innovation of cancer research and regenerative medicine.

 

Viet Nam National University  Ho Chi Minh City (VNU-HCM) is one of the two largest national universities in Vietnam. The education professionals cover technology, natural science, basic sciences, social and humanity, literature, foreign languages, and business. Stem Cell Institute, University of Science, VNU-HCM, is an internationally recognized research organization in stem cell and cancer research.

For the last few years, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA ) has closely cooperated with VNU-HCM in education and research, especially in cancer research. UCLA is the second largest campus in enrollment in the University of California system.
