 A leading stem cell scientist has said he was “totally blown away” by advances being made in the UAE.


Pekka Katajisto, director of the MetaStem Centre of Excellence at the University of Helsinki, spoke of the crucial work being carried out in both the Emirates and his homeland of Finland to extend and improve lives during a visit to Abu Dhabi.

He reflected on the progress of the Abu Dhabi Stem Cell Centre as well as the Emirati Genome Programme, which aims to boost understanding of rare genetic disorders and pave the way for early diagnosis.

This is the result of how much UAE invests in research, innovation and development, a total role model for the rest of the world!
