Over 500 Experts from 8 Nations Discuss Breakthroughs in Regenerative Medicine and Neurorestoration
New Delhi: The 17th Annual Conference of the International Association of Neurorestoratology (IANR), held alongside the 7th Annual Conference of the Society of Regenerative Sciences (India), concluded on a successful note in New Delhi, bringing together global experts to advance the science of neurorestoration and regenerative medicine.
The conference was inaugurated by Shri Jual Oram, Hon’ble Minister of Tribal Affairs, while Shri J.P. Nadda, Hon’ble Minister of Health and Family Welfare, extended his greetings via video message, underscoring the government’s support for advancing regenerative medicine in India.
The event focused on regenerative medicine using cellular therapies, which have the potential to benefit India’s 2.68 crore Divyang citizens. India also leads globally in publications on neurological conditions.
Dr. Alok Sharma, President of the Society of Regenerative Sciences (India), said,
“Our work in regenerative medicine offers treatment for patients with no other options. We urge the inclusion of cellular therapies under Ayushman Bharat so all patients can access these life-changing treatments.”
The concluding day highlighted pediatric neurorestoratology, with a special focus on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), behavior therapy, and parental perspectives. Discussions emphasized evidence-based interventions, collaboration between clinicians and families, and interdisciplinary approaches to support children with neurodevelopmental disorders.
