On August 22, 2025, the Center for Developmental Biology and Regenerative Medicine (CDBRM) at National Taiwan University hosted the Summer Program Joint Research Presentation and Exchange. The event aimed to provide a platform for both CDBRM summer program students and students from the Department of Life Science’s Developmental Biology Lab Course to showcase their research achievements, while promoting academic interactions among faculty and across laboratories. Student presentations were scheduled from morning to afternoon, covering topics in cell and molecular biology, developmental biology, regenerative medicine, gene editing, and multiomics analysis, highlighting the learning outcomes and research achievements from the summer program and lab course.

The program brought together 14 students from NTU, NCHU, NTNU, USA University of Virginia and other institutions, representing diverse programs such as Biotechnology and Food Nutrition, Animal Science, and Life Sciences. In their final presentations, students shared projects conducted in their advisors’ laboratories, covering research design, optimization of experimental methods, and strategies for addressing challenges. They engaged in lively discussions with faculty and peers, demonstrating notable confidence and progress that reflected the learning outcomes of both the summer internship and laboratory course.

The event was held jointly with Neuroscience Summer Camp and the N1 Biotechnology Summer Program, fostering cross-course and cross-laboratory interactions. During the lunch session, Illumina Inc. delivered a special presentation titled Driving the Multiomics Revolution: The Latest Innovations from Illumina, providing valuable opportunities for academic–industry exchange.

The event finished in the afternoon, with faculty, advisors, and students participating in an evening banquet, enjoying meals and beverages, and further enhancing interactions within and beyond the center. Overall, the event successfully showcased student research, strengthened student confidence, and promoted cross-lab and academic-industry collaborations.
