The UKNSCN will not be holding a full science meeting during 2007, its first year of operations. However, the Research Councils will be holding a fourth and final annual meeting for stem cell researchers who hold grants under the SR2002 Stem Cells Programme, within which the UKNSCN will have a dedicated session featuring selected presentations. This meeting is being planned for late 2007 and attendance will largely be restricted to Research Council grant holders and their project staff.
