Session Title： "Cutting-edge Regenerative Medicine in Japan and the 'Super Special Consortia' for Advanced Medicine"
Amid rapid progress in life sciences and biotechnology, the fruits of Japan's bio firms are ready for harvest. Leading-edge research is beginning to yield a range of innovative products, from autologous epithelium cell transplantation, now in global clinical trials, to iPS cell technology, an area in early stages but with huge promise. Backed by government schemes to encourage innovation, Japan's biotech firms have moved out of stagnation and are now adding to the industry's progress. One such scheme, the "Super Special Consortia," allows for flexibility in R&D projects in such priority fields as regenerative medicine and iPS cell research. This session will discuss these and other topics.
