“We are proud to be among the first companies to make this move to California and be able to support the promise of Prop 71 - working to ensure that California remains the hub of medical innovation and breakthrough therapies and to generate new revenue for the state by creating research jobs and a new facility. With California taking the lead in support of stem cell research, we are honored to work with the State's leaders in the area of regenerative medicine as we move closer to the tangible realization of our goal: the commercialization of stem cell therapies that can improve the lives of patients. This move to California will allow us to gain significant momentum by being able to take advantage of a favorable environment for funding. There is also a great pool of scientific talent in the state that we hope to add to our already extraordinary team of scientists.”
