SRI meeting in Brisbane, Australia

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!

Visit to University of Colorado Boulder

Thor visited the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at CU Boulder on Thursday, November 17. He gave a seminar on human pluripotent stem cell states and the genetic regulation of human trophoblast stem cells. He also met with faculty in the Department of Biochemistry and the BioFrontiers Institute. Thanks again Justin Brumbaugh for your kind invitation to visit this beautiful campus!

Visit to Baylor College of Medicine

Thor visited Baylor and presented our latest studies on human pluripotency and trophoblast development. A great opportunity to find out about the exciting science happening at BCM Houston and catch up with friends and collaborators!
