We discussed safety standards currently practiced in the industry and how to improve the industry moving forward.” Dr. Shwani, a member of the board for the American Academy of Stem Cell Physicians added, that “it is so important to bring industry partners together from all over the world to develop a standard that promotes patient safety and encourages growth in the field of regenerative medicine.”
The Ministry of Health, Mr. Duane Sands seeks to provide the leadership necessary to ensure and guard the protection and promotion of the health of all residents. It provides all residents with access to comprehensive, preventive, quality health care services and care. “Dr. Sands has always had a passion for helping people.
