Description from Organizer: Development has been organising regular meetings on human development for over a decade. For 2026, the journal has teamed up with the Wellcome-funded consortium the Human Developmental Biology Initiative (HDBI) to co-organise this event, which will bring together researchers from around the world, united by an interest in understanding human developmental biology. Topics covered will range from lineage specification, patterning and morphogenesis through to bioengineering and disease modelling.
