“We look forward to the upcoming SFB annual meeting and presenting our most current biomaterials research,” said Robert J. Hariri, M.D., Ph.D., Celularity’s CEO, Chairman and Founder. “Celularity’s unique technology platform is grounded in our use of the post-partum placenta as the source of cells and biomaterials for the development of therapeutics. This creates two independent but complimentary product opportunities in cellular and regenerative medicine, which reinforces our confidence in potential therapeutic benefits of biomaterials as we advance the development of these therapeutic options for patients,” said Hariri.
