1
The main objective of the CorEuStem is to develop an efficient and effective consortium for harmonizing procedures, protocols and tools to provide efficient benchmarking, quality control and intensive training.
2
One of the major challenges for core facilities is to keep track, evaluate and implement cutting-edge technologies. Core facilities strive to standardize, evaluate, adopt and implement new technologies in the field of hPSCs, organoid biology and gene editing
3
In the past 12 years, experimental approaches used in biomedical research have been reshaped by the discovery of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), the development of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology and the possibility of generating in vitro organ-like structures called organoids.

23 – 24 August 2023 Gene-editors from the CorEuStem network gathered for two days, discussing post-edit quality controls and molecular karyotyping cut-off strategies. The meeting took place at the Lund Stem Cell Centre, thanks to the organising skills of the CAGT team and WG2.
The Standardising Stem Cell Core Facilities in Europe – a CorEuStem Symposium took place at Champalimaud Foundation in Lisbon, Portugal, from 27th to 28th April 2023. The meeting gathered experts from the different core facilities in Europe and covered the latest advances in human stem cells and gene editing technologies. More than 80 participants members attended from CorEuStem COST Action. The two-day...
We are thrilled to announce upcoming CorEuStem hands-on training/workshop on induced pluripotent stem cell derivation & culturing. During this training, you will learn the mostly used techniques and protocols for generating induced pluripotent stem cells. Upon completion of this training, participants will: Target audience: PhD Students, Postdocs, Early Career Researchers, Principal Investigators, Investigators, Technicians (CorEuStem members...
COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding organisation for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and beyond and enable researchers and innovators to grow their ideas in any science and technology field by sharing them with their peers. COST Actions are bottom-up networks with a duration of four years that boost research, innovation and careers.
The COST Action CorEuStem will be comprised of European core facilities that are experts in stem cell biology, differentiation, organoids and gene editing technologies with the aim of developing an efficient and effective consortium for harmonizing procedures and protocols across Europe and beyond.
