This will help NIMS clinicians gather expertise in basic sciences that CCMB has established itself in

Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) and Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) signed a memorandum of understanding to improve the hospital’s capabilities in stem cell and regenerative therapies.

The MoU will help NIMS clinicians to gather expertise in basic sciences that CCMB has established itself in. The MoU was signed as part of a larger project funded by the Department of Science and Technology of Govt of India.

NIMS is also developing a bone marrow facility to conduct stem-cell transplants. The MoU gives CCMB access to clinical aspects of research and would facilitate better stem cell research.
