Share the Science: Dr. Charles Cox Jr – Cellular Therapies for Neurological Injuries

Share the Science: Dr. Charles Cox Jr – Cellular Therapies for Neurological Injuries
Save the Cord Foundation and Mediware, Inc. are pleased to welcome Dr. Charles Cox, Jr as a featured speaker on “Share the Science.”  Dr. Cox will be speaking about cellular therapies for neurological injuries, preclinical and early clinical trials occurring in the field, and future outlooks.
Dr. Cox is the George and Cynthia Mitchell Distinguished Chair in Neurosciences and directs the Pediatric Surgical Translational Laboratories and Pediatric Program in Regenerative Medicine at the UTHealth Medical School. He also directs the Pediatric Trauma Program at the UTHealth Medical School/Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital in the Texas Medical Center.
Recently, Dr. Cox completed the first acute, autologous cell therapy treatment Phase I study for traumatic brain injury in children (aged 5-14) in a collaborative effort between leading institutions in the Texas Medical Center including The University of Texas Medical School at Houston, Memorial Hermann Children’s Hospital, MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital, and The Center for Cell and Gene Therapy (CAGT) at Baylor College of Medicine.  The study has evolved to include analysis of the use of cord blood stem cells in treating traumatic brain injury and the role of heterologous cellular therapies.
It is with great pleasure that we welcome Dr. Cox to “Share the Science” where he will go into great detail about various stem and progenitor cellular therapies as potential treatments for neurological injuries, the differences between these many cell types, preclinical and early clinical trials occurring in the field, and future outlooks.
Dr. Charles Cox, Jr
from the UTHealth Medical School and
Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital
will present
“Cellular Therapies for Neurological Injuries”
Recorded Friday, February 3rd – 11am Central Time
View the Recorded Webinar: FREE and Open to the Public
View the RECORDED WEBINAR now for SHARE THE SCIENCE with Dr. Charles Cox Jr
As an introduction to this webinar, we recommend viewing the short interview we did with Dr. Cox last year during the Perinatal Stem Cell Conference where he emphasized the role of cord blood in regenerative medicine (watch the interveiw here).
Attendees of this webinar will have the opportunity to learn about:
  • Historical perspective of the development of preclinical data in the field
  • How to differentiate between various cell types
  • Benefits of potential pleiotropic mechanisms of action
  • How to be a better critical reviewer of the literature
Attendees will also be invited to ask Dr. Cox questions live during this event.

We wish to thank Dr. Charles Cox Jr. for volunteering his time to speak on
Share the Science and sharing his valuable insight on cellular therapies for neurological injuries.
We also wish to thank our generous sponsors, Mediware Inc., who continue
to support cord blood education through our “Share the Science” series.
