See you at the SynCell Asia Workshop in Guangming Science City on July 9th

From July 9-11, 2025, the ASBA Workshop SynCell Asia — hosted by the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences — will convene at Guangming Science City, Shenzhen. This flagship academic event, centered on synthetic cell research, invites the pan-Asian scientific community to push frontiers together.

1. Frontier Convergence: Redefine Synthetic Cell Research

Synthetic cell research is reshaping life science paradigms. The workshop unites experts from ~25 institutions across Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and beyond. Renowned speakers like Chenli Liu, Byung-Kwan Cho, and others will tackle core challenges in synthetic cell construction — sharing breakthroughs in design, synthesis, and characterization. Deep dives into applications and enabling technologies will fuel field-wide innovation.

2. Young Scientists: Spotlight on Emerging Talent

For postdocs and graduate students, the “Young Scientists - Call for Abstracts” offers a platform to shine. Submit for oral/poster presentations if your work focuses on synthetic cell research. Local accommodation, meeting, and dining costs are subsidized (travel at your expense) — empowering fresh voices to shape the field’s future.

3. Collaborative Carnival: Accelerate Discovery

Over three days, the workshop blends invited talks, thematic debates, and interactive networking. Stay ahead of synthetic cell trends, debate core questions, and collaborate with pan-Asian peers. Expand your research and career horizons — and help write the next chapter of synthetic cell innovation at Guangming Science City.
