Upcoming Events

Stanford Alpha Clinic's Education Working Group is pleased to announce our Second Annual Clinical Trial Bootcamp. Register now!

Join us for an informative afternoon with experts in the stem cell and gene therapy field. During this session participants can expect to:

• Use a case study of a successful early phase stem cell therapy clinical program to underscore unique requirements for success;
• Define the types of nonclinical data needed to support an investigational new drug (IND); 
• Highlight requirements for a successful clinical protocol; 
• Examine what it takes to develop a budget; 
• Understand operations of an early phase clinical program; 

All are welcome to attend - our content will be intended for stem cell experts, RNs, NPs, and Postdocs. People with a keen interest in translational science are likely to enjoy and learn from this event.

Check out last year's event here as some information may be referenced. 

Please reach out to alphaclinic@stanford.edu with any questions about this event.

Stanford Alpha Clinic and The Tech Interactive has embarked on a new collaboration to inform the public about the latest in cell and gene therapy development. Every second Saturday, Stanford Alpha Clinic hosts the Cell & Gene Therapy Showcase at the Tech Interactive's Innovations in Healthcare exhibit, featuring cell and gene therapy research and clinical teams from Stanford Medicine. 

Through conversation and hands-on activities, visitors of the Tech Interactive can expect to learn about topics such as the role of the T-cell in protecting the body against diseases, how gene editing works, the impact of a rare disease on patients and families, as well as the potential of cell and gene therapy to "cure" certain rare diseases. 

Why Should You Attend:

• Gain a deeper understanding of cutting-edge medical research and treatments.
• Discover opportunities to participate in clinical trials and contribute to the advancement of medical science.
• Engage with experts and ask questions about health and scientific research.
• Enjoy a day of interactive learning and community engagement.

Please complete this form if you are a Stanford Medicine lab or clinical team and would like to participate in this public showcase.
