Extracellular vesicle events
International Society of Extracellular Vesicles 2023
Ms Rebecca Davies recently attended the International Society for Extracellular Vesicle’s Annual Meeting (ISEV2023) in Seattle, Washington, as part of her final year PhD on mesenchymal stromal cell extracellular vesicles (MSC EVs). Here, she got a chance to see the forefront of EV research, new EV technologies and discuss upcoming regulations with scientists in the field. She also presented my own work in the poster session, giving her a chance to discuss my PhD with like-minded scientists to gain their opinion and expertise. She said that “Overall, it was a valuable experience and one that will greatly enhance my approach to EV research.”
International Society of Extracellular Vesicles 2022
In May 2022, Dr Oksana Kehoe and Becky Davies (3rd Year PhD student) attended the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles Annual Meeting (ISEV2022) at the Centre des Congrès of Lyon, France.
The annual meeting offered an unparalleled opportunity to learn from, teach, and network with, leading and emerging experts in EV research.
This event featured the best in vesicle science, covering all aspects of fundamental, translational, and clinical research, disseminating cutting-edge developments in EV research. ISEV2022 brought together scientists from academic, clinics, and industry, who have a common goal of understanding EVs and applying this knowledge for societal and economic benefit.
Becky Davies is the winner of the ISEV2022 Scholarship and was selected for oral presentation with her abstract:
EV consultation in Vietnam
In summer 2022, a member of the OsKoR research team, Rebecca Davies, travelled to Hanoi, Vietnam where she acted as a consultant for the Vinmec Healthcare System. Here, our knowledge of mesenchymal stromal cell extracellular vesicles (MSC EVs) was used to assist the Vinmec team on enrichment and characterisation of their GMP grade MSC EVs for future use in animal studies and clinical trials.
