Right Turn: TMM2016 in 140 characters and photos

Interesting people in Whistler

Wildlife

Two days ago (on October 26) the fifth Till & McCulloch Meetings (TMM) wrapped up in Whistler, BC. From all accounts, it was an excellent conference. But you don’t need to take my word for it. Medicine by Design – a generous travel award sponsor of TMM – has kindly captured a random sample of the TMM in tweets (there were so many that #TMM2016) was trending on Twitter on the first day of the conference!

We know a picture is worth a thousand words, so I’m going to sit back and let these photos and tweets – in case you actually like words – speak for themselves. This year’s, and next year’s hosts – Stem Cell Network, Ontario Institute for Regenerative Medicine and CCRM – hope to see you in Mont-Tremblant in November for TMM2017.
