About Us - Strategic Directions

Tissue Engineering and Cell Therapy :

  • Focus on human embryonic stem cell and gene therapy
  • Existing strength in heart disease, diabetes and neural injury

Genetics, Epigenetics and Phenotyping :

  • Identify genomic regions, gene network and molecular markers
  • Inheritance information not coded by DNA sequence
  • Phenotypic evaluation

Biomarkers and Drug Discovery in Aging :

  • Targeting at mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress and inflammation, telomere and telomerase
  • Existing strength in aging-related metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases
