Workshops are an important part of the IFPA annual meeting as they allow for discussion of specialized topics. At the IFPA meeting 2013 twelve themed workshops were presented, five of which are summarized in this report. These workshops related to various aspects of placental biology but collectively covered areas of new technologies for placenta research: 1) use of 'omics' in understanding placental development and pathologies; 2) bioinformatics and use of omics technologies; 3) planning and coordination of a placenta research network; 4) clinical imaging and pathological outcomes; 5) placental evolution.
研讨会是国际胎盘协会(IFPA)年会的重要组成部分,因为它们有助于对专业主题进行讨论。在2013年的IFPA会议上,共举办了12场主题研讨会,本报告总结了其中的5场。这些研讨会涉及胎盘生物学的各个方面,但总体涵盖了胎盘研究的新技术领域:1)“组学”在理解胎盘发育和病理中的应用;2)生物信息学和组学技术的应用;3)胎盘研究网络的规划与协调;4)临床成像与病理结果;5)胎盘进化。
