Important @ICMR statement on evidence based use of #StemCell Therapy based on critical review of literature & claims by large panel of academic clinicians, which I had the privilege to lead. #StemCells often hyped & shouldn't be offered as #StandardOfCare
Inherent public appeal of #StemCellTherapy is being exploited & promoted unethically as a #MagicRemedy to vulnerable patients & should be regulated. There are many diseases where Basic/Translational/Clinical Research can establish its utility @ISSCR @ICMR @fda@ema leads the way!
