Within that period we performed researches in 7 different directions related to treatment of serious diseases. We work with those groups of people who suffer from diseases that cannot be treated by usual medicine. These are liver diseases, diabetes of both types, diseases of nervous system, chronic kidney disease, joints and thyroid body diseases,” Director General of the National Scientific Medical Center Abai Baigenzhin said. American company Stemedica is a partner in the cell technologies project.
