The CiRA Foundation was founded in 2020 to operate the iPS Cell Stock Project and help advance iPS cell-based regenerative medicine. The CiRA Foundation succeeds the Center for iPS Cell Research and Application (CiRA), Kyoto University, in this role, including the manufacturing and storage of high-quality iPS cells for distribution to academic research institutions and companies developing clinical applications. The CiRA Foundation is a non-profit organization funded primarily by the iPS Cell Research Fund.
Your support, therefore, aids in recruiting and retaining talented staff who will help achieve its goals. To further the application and commercialization of iPS cells for regenerative medicine, the CiRA Foundation maintains a strong relationship with CiRA. We appreciate your support.
