Was there any news or interesting information to come from this year's conference? I remember last year there seemed to be a lot of feedback from the conference but this year I've read nothing from anybody and was a bit confused!

Yeah I noticed that went up not long after I posted this!

 

It's a shame about ACell, which doesn't look to be holding up to early expectations. I was hopeful there might be some progress in this area and the science, at least on a basic level, seemed sound. But it looks like ultimately it's not really having much of an impact at all, certainly not in the "autocloning" capacity that everybody was so excited about.

 

That's the value of rigorous scientific testing, though! It's better to know it doesn't work than keep deluding ourselves it might.

 

Other than that most of the news seems focused around improvements to already existing techniques and general discussion on the pros and cons of differing surgical techniques.
