Male Germ Cells: From Stem Cells To Diseases #spermatogenesis23

Synopsis

The germline provides an eternal cellular link between generations and is the source of genetic diversity and evolution of animal populations. In addition, perturbations in the epigenome or genome of a parental germline that arise during development could be underlying causes of many disease states in offspring. In males, sperm are the conduit for transmission of genetic and epigenetic information to the next generation and are formed by the complex process of spermatogenesis, which involves undifferentiated stem cell, differentiating, meiotic, and morphogenesis phases. This workshop will explore recent advances in understanding the biology of these different phases in a variety of animal models as well as how epigenetic and genetic abnormalities may underlie transmission of diseases and fertility disorder in humans. Invited talks that focus on cutting edge findings along with vibrant discussions and debates about controversies in the field will provide a rich intellectual atmosphere that is sure to have an important impact on how the biology of spermatogenesis is investigated for years to come.
 

Key Sessions

  • Origins of the spermatogenic lineage
  • Mechanisms of spermatogenic differentiation
  • Genetic anomalies of the male germline
  • Metabolics of spermatogenesis
  • Environmental influences on spermatogenesis
  • Novel genetic discovery in spermatogenesis
  • Late breaking science

Venue

Sun Gardens Dubrovnik

We are excited to be adding a beautiful Adriatic destination to our portfolio for autumn 2023 – the Sun Gardens Dubrovnik in Croatia. The resort is nestled into the hillside with uninterrupted, stunning views of the ocean. 

This beautiful hotel is located only 11 km from Dubrovnik city centre, in the small village of Orašac, nestled amongst the citrus groves, palm trees and gorgeous blue sea that characterize the city. The Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with magnificent defensive walls surrounding it, is just one of the wonderful places to visit. With stunning architecture, scenic walks, wine tasting, boat trips and beautiful beaches, there is plenty to inspire when exploring beyond the hotel. We truly believe Croatia will become a firm favourite with our delegates.

The hotel boasts several wonderful dining options with a mix of Dalmatian, Mediterranean, international and fusion culinary experiences. Or you may want to take in the stunning views of the sea and the nearby islands as you unwind, relax and catch up on the day’s events in one of the hotels bars. Pools, a promenade, spa, sports centre and beaches are just a few of the other facilities you will find available during your stay. 

This is not an all-inclusive property, but we have arranged a full food and beverage package for delegates during the conference period which is included within the registration fee. Breakfast will be at leisure each morning, but participants will dine together for conference lunches and dinners. For anyone staying any extra nights, the rate will be bed and breakfast only so delegates can choose whether to dine at the hotel or explore and eat elsewhere. 

Hotel facilities include;
•    Complimentary Wi-Fi in guest rooms and throughout hotel and
conference areas
•    3 Pools
•    Spa
•    Gym & Sports Center
•    8 Restaurants
•    9 Bars
•    Kids Club
•    Beach

Transportation

The hotel is approximately 40 minutes from Dubrovnik Airport, the second largest international airport in Croatia. Europeans will find this fairly easy to get to and from New York also offer a direct flight option for anyone travelling from the US. The most common flights into Dubrovnik are from Zagreb and Frankfurt so these are popular choices for interconnecting flights.

Taxis

The Sun Gardens Hotel is located approximately 40 minutes from the Dubrovnik International Airport.
Taxis are available outside the airport, but we would strongly recommend you pre-book your airport transfer with one of the many private transfer companies that are available.

Pre-booked Airport Transfers

Should you wish to pre-book a taxi transfer from the airport, please find below details of a transportation provider who is aware of our groups. They have provided us with a special price offer, to and from the airport. 

The special price offer will be valid only for the period of October 4th to October, 18th – for prices outside of these dates, please contact the Korkyra Travel Agency directly at transfers@korkyra-dubrovnik.com 

Please note the cancellation policy is 48 hours. The Korkyra Travel Agency are also based on-site at the Sun Gardens hotel, so should you have any issues regarding transfers, there will always be someone on hand to assist for the duration of the conference. 

Please email transfers@korkyra-dubrovnik.com for all booking enquiries. Be sure reference Fusion Conferences, as well as your transfer date and time. Once your transfer has been confirmed, you will receive an email with all the needed information.

Transportation is the sole responsibility of the delegate. Please ensure you conduct your own research and double check your booking details ahead of your arrival. Fusion Conferences are unable to assist with or confirm transportation bookings due to insurance limitations. Thank you for your understanding.
