Stem cell research is one of the fascinating areas of contemporary biology, but, as with many expanding fields of scientific inquiry, research on stem cells raises scientific questions as
rapidly as it generates discoveries. Research on stem cell treatment continues to advance
knowledge about how an organism develops from a single cell and how healthy cells replace
damaged cells in adult organisms. The most important potential application of human stem
cells is the generation of cells and tissues that could be used for cell-based therapies, especially
oncology.
The Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara, collaborated with the center of
excellence and innovation (Pusat Unggulan Inovasi /PUI). The Stem Cell center of the
Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) organized an International Conference. The International
Stem Cell and Oncology Conference (ISCOC) 2017 was an comprehensive academic
conference in the field of stem cell and oncology research and also tropical medicine and
related scientific topics.
We expect this conference will benefit academics and practitioners in the field of health
sciences in Indonesia. During the two day conference, researchers presented the most recent
discoveries in stem cell and oncology and also general medical topics, and served as well in
establishing networking for joint researchers and collaboration among participants.
The editors and the scientific committee would like to thank the participants and express
their gratitude to Faculty of Medicine of the Universitas Sumatera Utara for their support
to ISCOC 2017. Lastly, we are most indebted for the generous support given by Universitas
Sumatera Utara, Medan, Sumatera Utara, Indonesia.
