Germany. \nDepartment of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery\, University Hospital Rechts der Isar\, Technische Universität München\, Munich\, Germany. \nAbstract : \nActivation of endogenous stem cells is more powerful and superior than allogenic/ autologous stem cell translation in term for organ regeneration.  Naturally\, local endogenous stem cellactively contributes the regeneration of damaged cells/tissues/organs that represents a promising and successful platform in regenerative medicine. In principle\, our local endogenous stem cells know much better how to regenerate the organ. Every organ has their own local endogenous stem cells\, generally silent mode but active upon demand for organ regeneration. Identification and characterization of local endogenous stem cells and their activation for organ regeneration is a big challenge in stem cell research and therapy. Identification endogenous stem cells in various human organs such as skin\, heart\, brain\, liver and kidney and characterized their regeneration potential in in vitro models\, in vivo non-human model as well as human clinical setting is the main theme of our research and therapy. Like our immune system\, endogenous stem cell system has also significant role for organ regeneration. Current modern life style hampers rapidly the regenerative  potential of our endogenous stem cells system. Various cases studies have been conducted for organ regeneration by changing healthy daily life styles. Taken all together\, important role of endogenous stem cell is the central focus here. It is necessary to take good care of endogens stem cells system of our body and keep healthy daily life style to prevent from organ degeneration diseases as well as not to welcome the diseases. \n\n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/endogenous-stem-cells-and-induced-pluripotent-stem-cells-in-research-and-therapy-current-challenges-and-future-prospects/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/52666.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190613T151900 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190613T151900 DTSTAMP:20260423T024428 CREATED:20190613T111942Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T092528Z UID:10001193-1560439140-1560439140@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:ISU Judo Championship DESCRIPTION:On 27 June 2019\, the ISU Department of Student Affairs organizes a university championship in judo.

The event will be held in Kazbegi\, during 24-31 July 2019. \nIn Georgia\, in its cultural and artistic community\, it has been a debate decade now that the National Cinema is not in a state of affluence. In this case\, generally\, they mean the quality of films produced in Georgia and the main criticism comes for the filmmakers; but we think that we have to find problems in film criticism and theory too. The purpose of our project is to discuss the current problems of this case in a wider context and ask specific questions: what it is film theory? What level of teaching do we have in our academies? Moreover\, what are the major challenges in this field nowadays? \nThe organizer of the seasonal school is Ilia State University. The school consists of as the academic personal of Ilia State University\, also international researchers and film critics. The aim of the project is to involve students from different level\, educational background and universities of Georgia. \nWe believe the project is unprecedented in Georgia – so many people with different ranks\, experience and education\, will have a common topic and focus of analysis – cinema and film studies. We hope the project will be beneficial as for young researchers interested in cinema\, also for filmakers in Georgia too. \nThe members of the organizers are Nino Mkheidze\, Alexander Gabelia and Giorgi Gabelia. The school has three Georgian (Marine Chitashvili\, Teo Khatiashvili\, Diana Maghlakelidze) and two foreign (Arman Fatic\, Giovanni Vimercati) lecturers. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/international-science-summer-school-in-film-studies/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/53360.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190603T110000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190603T110000 DTSTAMP:20260423T024428 CREATED:20190531T075649Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T092623Z UID:10001238-1559559600-1559559600@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:Cultural Consequences of University Reform in Georgia. Building a Resilient Society DESCRIPTION:This workshop at Ilia State University is organized with the support of University of Kent\, UK. It will bring together scholars from the humanities and social sciences\, from Georgian and European Universities: Ilia State University\, Tbilisi\, Georgia; University of Kent\, UK; Ruhr University Bochum\, Germany; Georgian University\, Tbilisi\, Georgia. \nIn May 2005\, Georgia joined the European Higher Education Area and received the state support\, as well as the support of European and American donor organizations for reforming its university system. In the wake of those quantifiable and documented reforms\, as well as ongoing process of development\, this workshop asks how we can evaluate their general societal and cultural effects in creating a resilient and progressive nation\, committed to fairness and equality. These general effects go beyond the university structures and are harder to evaluate. This workshop will ask what work\, in the disciplines of humanities and social sciences\, could be undertaken to assess the nature and durability of the effects of the reforms in the general society\, and also asks what the continuing and future role of higher education might be in further advancing Georgia as a progressive and resilient nation. \nAlthough social research or policy analysis are widely used in the analysis of education worldwide\, this project will take a different approach\, documenting and analysing the direct and indirect effects of higher education in a social or socio-cultural perspective. \nWe will ask how far and in what ways the newly accessible and inclusive higher education system has and will contribute to the improvement of civil society more generally. \nThe workshop will contribute to the vision of the role of the higher education sector in developing the culture required to promote and sustain a resilient society based on fairness and equality. We will ask how far and in what ways the newly accessible and inclusive higher education system has and will contribute to the improvement of civil society more generally. The premise is that the value of economic and structural reforms\, to be purposeful and sustainable\, should take root in a resilient civil society\, and we seek to establish what the role of cultural experts can be in analysing and contributing to social change. \n\n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/cultural-consequences-of-university-reform-in-georgia-building-a-resilient-society/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/52442.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190527T180000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190527T180000 DTSTAMP:20260423T024428 CREATED:20190521T134109Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T092626Z UID:10001268-1558980000-1558980000@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:Not speak is to speak: PhotoVoice Exhibition 2019 and Panel Discussion DESCRIPTION:On May 27\, at 18:00\, an exhibition and panel discussion regarding women issues in Georgia will be held at Ilia State University Bookstore “Ligamus”.

Outside of Denmark\, he is mostly famed for his fairytales\, although he was also an important poet\, novelist and writer of travel literature. \nIn this lecture\, we will investigate the unique style and content of Andersen’s fairytales\, and how they take the child’s point of view\, but always with a deeper existential meaning or dilemma\, appealing to a more mature audience. Thus\, in a broader sense\, we will see how the works of Andersen reflect the diverse thought\, art and literature of the Romantic Period in the 19th century – and beyond. \nIt would be very usefull\, if the audience would have read a fairytale beforehand. The guest lecturer recommends it being The Nightingale – for instance in this translation: \nhttp://www.andersen.sdu.dk/vaerk/hersholt/TheNightingale_e.html \nDr. Kenneth Reinecke Hansen is associate professor at the Department of Teacher Education\, University College Copenhagen\, where he mainly teaches and does research in the area of Danish language\, literature and media. He earned his PhD in Linguistics and Journalism\, and his MA in Nordic Languages and Literature\, and Philosophy. His current research interests include fake news\, pupils’ news media literacy\, and children’s moral (dis)engagement. He has published books and articles on\, i.a.\, television news dramaturgy\, clickbait headlines\, future-oriented journalism\, media didactics\, media framing\, and Danish orthography. \nThe Lecture will be held in English. \nAttendence is free. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/hans-christian-andersen-fairytales-and-beyond/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/52124.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190520T162000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20190520T162000 DTSTAMP:20260423T024428 CREATED:20190520T122027Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T092635Z UID:10001273-1558369200-1558369200@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:PRESENTATION OF “THE PHILOSOPHICAL ARCHIVE” IN GEORGIAN NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES DESCRIPTION:On May 15\, Georgian National Academy of Sciences hosted a presentation of Savle Tsereteli Institute of Philosophy’s new publication: “The Philosophical Archive\, Volume I: Tamaz Buachidze”.

Antonio Enrico Bartoli will present „Georgia and Italy – an ancient friendship looking at the future“ \nAbstract: \n\nThe relationship between Italy and Georgia is strong\, it dates back before Christianity\, from Emperor Vespasian to the famous Venetian Marco Polo.\nIn the seventeenth century\, Theatine Fathers from Italy introduced Georgia to Europe.\nCristoforo Castelli spent twenty-two years from 1632 to 1654 in Georgia. His drawings\, notes and letters offer a vivid testimony abought faces and customs of that time.\nThe first book printed in Georgian\, in 1629\, is the “Dittionario giorgiano e italiano”\, was realized – with the collaboration of a Georgian monk – by Stefano Paolini.\nItaly recognized the First Republic of Independent Georgia. After the collapse of USSR\, the diplomatic relations have been restored in 1992.\nDuring his official visit to Georgia in July 2018\, our President\, Sergio Mattarella pointed out that our two countries both yearn for freedom\, democracy and peace.\nGeorgia\, a bridge between Europe and Asia\, as well as Italy in the Mediterranean area\, at the crossroads of continents\, heirs of ancient civilizations.\nThroughout the centuries the Road of Silk has been the path along which merchants\, travelers\, artists created intense relationships\, an open door towards different cultures\, faiths and ideas.\nIn these days\, the Road of Silk is regaining its central role in tightening the connection between Europe and Asia at many levels.\nFrom Economy to Culture\, many case in point make stronger the millennial friendship between Italy and Georgia. Political\, economic\, cultural and scientific relations are constantly expanding. Our friendship is deeply rooted in the past\, but projected into the future.\n\nDate: April 18\, 16:00\, Ilia State University \nVenue: “Ligamus” Book Store\, 32 Chavchavadze Avenue \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/lecture-of-the-ambassador-of-italy-h-e-antonio-enrico-bartoli/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/51529.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
