The Theunissen Lab attended the 2023 Annual Meeting of the International Society of Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) in Boston. Rowan presented our exciting recent studies on 3D-cultured human blastoids in the Concurrent Session on “Engineering Models of Human Embryology” and was the recipient of both an ISSCR Travel Award and a Merit Abstract Reward. Congratulations Rowan!
The Theunissen Lab joined the Center of Regenerative Medicine for a St. Louis Cardinals game on Thursday, May 4th. Despite our vocal support, the Cardinals lost to the Angels. Keep up the good fight Redbirds!
Thor spoke at the 70th Annual Meeting of the Society of Reproductive Investigation in Brisbane, Australia, from March 21-25, 2023. He presented our latest studies on stem-cell-based models of human placental development in the Concurrent Mini-Symposium entitled “Studying the Maternal-Fetal Interface Using Stem Cells and Organoids.” Thanks to the organizers for the kind invitation to participate in this fantastic event!
Thor visited UT Southwestern in Dallas this week and presented our latest work on human placental development in the Department of Molecular Biology Seminar Series. Thanks Jun Wu for the kind invitation!
