The Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) and Stem Cell Network (SCN) are pleased to be partnering to deliver this event, hosted by the School of Biomedical Engineering at UBC. The Meeting for Advanced Synthetic Biology and Systems Bioengineering in Vancouver (MASSIV) 1.0 will bring together leading researchers, innovators, and trainees from around the world to discuss the future of synthetic biology and biomedical engineering. Recent advances in genome, cell, tissue, and organ engineering have enabled us to push the boundaries of biology and medicine at an unprecedented scale. Hosted in Vancouver, MASSIV 1.0 will highlight cutting-edge technologies and applications at the interface of biology, engineering, regenerative medicine, and data science. We will place special emphasis on how long-standing synthetic biology and bioengineering principles, originally developed using microorganisms alongside computational and AI approaches, can now be applied to stem cell biology and tissue engineering to advance human health more than ever before. Catalyzing research and collaboration in synthetic biology. Held at Canada's leading academic institution in the heart of British Columbia, Vancouver. Hear from leading experts from around the world in over 40 talks and discussions showcasing the latest innovations in biology Each panel will bring together 5–6 leading experts from diverse disciplines to discuss pressing challenges and emerging solutions in synthetic biology and systems bioengineering, with an emphasis on applications in regenerative medicine Designed to foster connection, creativity, and career growth, these trainee-focused sessions bring together emerging scientists and global leaders in synthetic biology. We invite students and trainees to submit abstracts for poster presentations. Selected abstracts will also be chosen for short talks if interest is indicated. Please note: All abstract submitters will be invited to register for the in-person conference once acceptance notifications have been issued. Join us for an inspiring event where you’ll hear from industry leaders, connect with fellow innovators, and discover the latest breakthroughs in synthetic biology. \*Only if you are not submitting an abstract. If submitting an abstract, please use the Abstract Submission Form to be considered.

Rooms on campus fill up quickly, so we recommend reserving your accommodation as soon as you complete registration. The conference will be held at the AMS Student Nest, located at: Here are the recommended transportation options to reach the venue. Bus: The most convenient buses are the #99 B-Line, #25, #33, #41, and #49, all of which stop at UBC Exchange, a short walk to the AMS Student Nest. From Downtown Vancouver: Take W 4th, W 10th or SW Marine Drive west to UBC. • Parking: Available at the Health Sciences Parkade, which is a 5-minute walk from the venue, or at the North Parkade, which is a 10-minute walk. Bike Racks: Available around the AMS Student Nest. UBC is bike-friendly with multiple bike lanes leading directly to the campus. Vancouver International Airport (YVR).Transport to Venue: From YVR, you can take the Canada Line from the airport to Broadway-City Hall Station and then transfer to the #99 B-Line bus to UBC. Alternatively, a taxi or rideshare from the airport will take about 30 minutes. - [Home](/ "Home") - [About](#about "About") - [Keynote Speakers](https://massivconference.com/#keynote "Keynote Speakers") - [Program Agenda](https://program.massivconference.com/ "Program Agenda") - [Training Events](/trainingevents "Training Events") - [Register](https://massivconference.com/#register "Register") - [Accommodations](#stay "Accommodations") - [Sponsors](https://massivconference.com/#sponsors "Sponsors") - [Contact Us](mailto:massiv.team@ubc.ca "Contact Us") - [Home](/ "Home") - [About](#about "About") - [Keynote Speakers](https://massivconference.com/#keynote "Keynote Speakers") - [Program Agenda](https://program.massivconference.com/ "Program Agenda") - [Training Events](/trainingevents "Training Events") - [Register](https://massivconference.com/#register "Register") - [Accommodations](#stay "Accommodations") - [Sponsors](https://massivconference.com/#sponsors "Sponsors") - [Contact Us](mailto:massiv.team@ubc.ca "Contact Us") - Full access to all conference sessions - Dedicated networking opportunities - Comprehensive conference materials - [West Coast Suites](https://suitesatubc.com/west-coast-suites-vancouver/) at UBC – a residence-style hotel on campus. - [Gage Suites](https://suitesatubc.com/gage-apartments-vancouver/) at UBC – self-contained suites near campus amenities. - [Home](/ "Home") - [About](#about "About") - [Keynote Speakers](https://massivconference.com/#keynote "Keynote Speakers") - [Program Agenda](https://program.massivconference.com/ "Program Agenda") - [Training Events](/trainingevents "Training Events") - [Register](https://massivconference.com/#register "Register") - [Accommodations](#stay "Accommodations") - [Sponsors](https://massivconference.com/#sponsors "Sponsors") - [Contact Us](mailto:massiv.team@ubc.ca "Contact Us") - [Home](/ "Home") - [About](#about "About") - [Keynote Speakers](https://massivconference.com/#keynote "Keynote Speakers") - [Program Agenda](https://program.massivconference.com/ "Program Agenda") - [Training Events](/trainingevents "Training Events") - [Register](https://massivconference.com/#register "Register") - [Accommodations](#stay "Accommodations") - [Sponsors](https://massivconference.com/#sponsors "Sponsors") - [Contact Us](mailto:massiv.team@ubc.ca "Contact Us") --- ## URL: https://www.massivconference.com/protected-collection-item ### Title: Protected Page ### Page ID: 7220712 ### Content: In order to view the page, please enter the password below: --- ## URL: https://www.massivconference.com/reset-password-page ### Title: Reset password page ### Page ID: 7220713 ### Content: Reset Password Reset Password --- ## URL: https://www.massivconference.com/trainingevents ### Title: Training Events ### Page ID: 8104143 ### Content: # Training Events ## Meet the Experts ## Interdisciplinary trainee collaboration presentations Boost your network!
