Kurzbeschreibung: Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are undifferentiated cells, which are typically derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst-stage embryo. In culture, these cells have the capacity to self-renew in an undifferentiated state but also may differentiate into cell types representing the three embryonic germ lineages, thus revealing their pluripotent potential. These cells could be of value for creating in-vitro culture systems and animal models that may be used to study human genetic disease, gene function, drug discovery, developmental biology, and differentiation events.

Considering the importance of stem cell biology researches in the world and the essential need for understanding and usage of this knowledge, the Royan Institute Scientific Committee has endeavored to hold the International workshop on Human Embryonic Stem Cells from December 4-6, 2006 at Royan Institute, Tehran Iran.
