Thousands of clinical trials are now underway, including more than 70 that are exploring the use of cell therapies—including MSCs—for seriously ill patients diagnosed with COVID-19. To get things done, it is mandatory to be informed of current and future public policy initiatives, especially in the age of the pandemic. The familiar pathways of product approval and funding are rapidly changing to address the current crisis.<br><br><strong>Key Topics:</strong><br>•    Updates from Policymakers: Administration and Capitol Hill<br>•    Overview of the Landscape: Regenerative Medicine and Cell Therapies<br>•    Insights on Outcomes from Use of MSCs for Patients with COVID-19<br>•    The Role of Government in Advancing Clinical Trials and Research<br>•    Scaling Manufacturing of Cell Therapies: Current Capabilities, Key Strategies for Moving Forward<br>•    Regenerative Medicine and Cell Therapy Workforce: Where We Are Today; Key Actions Needed<br>•    Roundtable Discussion on Key Policy Actions Needed to Advance the Field</p><p>	<strong>Confirmed Speakers:</strong><br>•    Peter Marks, MD, PhD, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration<br>•    Julie Allickson, PhD, Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine<br>•    Arnold Caplan, PhD, Case Western Reserve University<br>•    Colleen Delaney, MD, Deverra Therapeutics<br>•    Tiffany Facile, Sanford Health<br>•    Gary Green, Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine<br>•    Geoff Green, President, Longeveron<br>•    Joshua M.
