What Prof. Hideyuki Okano expects of Remedy Group
In order for Japan to lead the world in the field of regenerative medicine, it is definitely important to revitalize activities of the private sector and academia in addition to the top-down mechanisms of enacting laws and conducting examinations. I would like to contribute to the promotion of regenerative medicine in Japan and the world in cooperation with Remedy Group including Intellim Co., Ltd.
