This event will unite industry and academic leaders to address the challenge of advancing cell and gene therapies into the clinic. Discover the breakthroughs shaping the future of medicine at this two-day event designed for scientists, innovators, and

This one-day workshop covers an introduction to Biofoundries and automation and the role they can play in engineering biology. We will include examples of research projects and experimental workflows using automation and bioengineering for plants and microbes. The workshop will consist of a mixture of lectures and practical sessions.

Building on the success of last year’s symposium, CHOS 2026 will highlight cutting-edge science, showcase emerging talent, and foster collaboration between academic and industry communities.
