Discovery Taiwan Debuts New Documentary

Medical Elite: Regenerative Medicine

SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 26 November 2024 - A riveting new documentary, Medical Elite: Regenerative Medicine, featuring Japan’s premier STEMCELL Co.

, Ltd, will premiere on the Discovery Channel on Friday, November 29, at 7:10 p.m. and on Discovery Asia on Sunday, December 8, at 9 p.m.

This documentary delves into the world of stem cell therapy, exploring its vast potential for treating degenerative diseases, as well as the regulatory landscape around it and international collaborations shaping the future of regenerative medicine. The makers of the documentary highlight these issues through the lives of three individuals: Edwin Hooy, a businessman from Singapore with a chronic disease, and Yuki Sato, a prominent Japanese athlete grappling with a knee issue; and Kiichi Oya, a 73-year-old suffering from a neurodegenerative disease, and how all of them find hope through stem cell therapy.

The attending physician, Dr. Nana Kobayashi, MD, Director of Omotesando HELENE Clinic, says, “We can bring a little light to patients who were previously experiencing pain and sadness and had lost hope for the future.”

Dr. Ravindra Gupta, a Professor of Clinical Microbiology at the University of Cambridge adds, “We have to understand our cells, and by understanding our cells, we then understand processes, for example related to aging and poor health.

Through personal stories of those who were willing to take the first step towards life-changing treatment, Medical Elite: Regenerative Medicine takes viewers behind the scenes, exploring the scientific processes involved in sourcing, culturing, and administering stem cells, and offers an insight into the challenges researchers face as they strive to unlock the full potential of this groundbreaking therapy of medical science.
