Introduction

CAM models provide robust, adaptable and ethical alternative in vivo systems for a broad range of biomedical applications, from modelling cancer and other diseases, to regenerative biology, providing insights into molecular mechanisms, and acting as a platform to test therapeutic compounds and biomaterials. 

Motivated by the success of the 2nd International CAM Conference in Erlangen, Germany, in 2024, which attracted with more than 100 participants from 18 countries, we are delighted to host the next conference in Liverpool. 

You can expect an exciting and highly informative conference exploring diverse and innovative applications of CAM models. We are bringing together experts across disciplines to share cutting-edge research, refine molecular and analytical tools, and accelerate model development. The collaborative focus aims to expand applications, strengthen the international CAM community, and establish as mainstream this ethical platform for translational and molecular research.

We look forward to meeting you in Liverpool, an historic and vibrant city in the heart of Merseyside, United Kingdom.
