Report

The 3rd Fusion conference on Neurogenesis took place from Feb 8-11 in Cancun, Mexico. The conference was organized by Hongjun Song (U Penn, USA) and Sebastian Jessberger (UZH, CH) and brought together leaders in the field of neural stem cell biology and disease modeling with numerous junior investigators as well as trainees. The meeting had an outstanding line-up with key leaders in the field participating. The conference was characterized by lively discussions, ample networking opportunities and very exciting science in the amazing setting right at the Caribbean sea.

The meeting consisted of 41 talks by speakers from north America, Asia, and Europe, including many junior investigators, woman scientists, and those from under-represented groups. In addition, there were two lively poster sessions.

The conference allowed for exciting and innovative discussions among the >100 participants that will help to move the fields of neurogenesis and stem cell biology forward. The fusion team provided outstanding support and guaranteed for a smooth organization in the wonderful surrounding of the Fiesta Americana resort. The outside dinners on two nights that were held in front of the sea were spectacular.

The meeting awarded several fellowships to support early career investigators with the generous support of meeting organizers and many invited speakers.

The meeting on Neurogenesis that had been initiated in 2016 is now one of the most favorite meetings for many investigators and will be continued in the future.

The meeting was at a fantastic venue and excellently organized by Fusion Conferences, Ltd. The conference was generously supported by the Chen Institute, EMBO, Cell Stem Cell, and Stem Cell Technologies.

Synopsis

Neural development continues throughout life in the mammalian brain. This conference will bring together leaders from diverse fields, such as embryonic cortical development, adult neurogenesis, patient-derived stem cell-based 2D and 3B brain organoid disease modelling, direct reprograming and transplantation to discuss recent advances and remaining gaps in the understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating neural stem cell activity, neural fate specification and functional significance of circuitries modified by the addition of new neurons in health and diseases.

Location

Cancun is a delightful combination of natural beauty, islands, ecological reserves and white sandy beaches. However, besides sun, sand and sea, this destination also offers an infinite variety of underwater activities to choose from: the diving, snorkelling and fishing here are outstanding and you will find an undersea world packed with tropical fish that live on the second largest barrier reef in the world. Sports enthusiasts might choose one of the many eco-tourism activities, such as cycling or hiking through the tropical forest or kayaking through mangroves, or something a little more adventuresome, like zip lining through the treetops.

Apart from the more well-known ancient Mayan archealogical sites such as Tulum, Cobá and Chichén Itzá you may like to visit the Aktun Chen caverns, voted one of the Top 10 underwater walks by National Geographic described as a truly magical experience.

Group Activities

We have arranged an exciting group activity taking place pre-conference for participants and accompanying guests. Please note this is only available for those arriving the night before the conference, see further details below.

 

Unfortunately, on this occasion due to time restrictions and a full programme, we are unable to arrange a group activity during the free time in the programme. If you would like to book a tour independently, we recommend Aquaworld as they are just a short walk from the hotel.

 

Snorkel in Musa Nizuc

 

This activity will take place before registration on day 1 of the conference.

 

Plunge into the crystal-clear waters of Punta Nizuc and explore a reef full of corals along with a few statues from MUSA. Once on our floating platform, adorn your gear and you’re ready to take the plunge and snorkel in the crystal-clear turquoise waters. In this area, weather permitting, you can see statues that form part of the Cancun Underwater Museum; including ‘The Garden of Hope’, ‘Timebomb’, ‘The Last Supper’ as well as the newest additions to MUSA created by local artist Elier Amado Gil. Snorkelling is one of the most popular activities to do in Cancun, so jump in, face down, relax and enjoy the view!

 

This activity is suitable for beginners and children. The floating platform provides easy access to and from the water, and the shallow waters provide a calm sheltered snorkel site so beginners can learn the basics.

 

Price

$61 per person ($41 per person to be paid in advance, directly to the tour company once final numbers are confirmed, plus a $20 Reef Preservation fee to be paid per person at time of activity).
