Purita has since treated an array of professional athletes with career-threatening injuries.

The GSCG Symposium offers an opportunity for many of the world’s most respected authorities on stem cell and regenerative medicine to join Purita and other industry leaders to showcase advancements in research and therapies on a global level.

An interdisciplinary team of stem cell experts will provide a full day of high-level scientific lectures geared to medical professionals. Pioneers and luminaries in stem cell medicine will serve as featured speakers, led by keynote speakers Purita and Duncan Ross, PhD Ross, a GSCG Advisory Board faculty member, is a molecular biologist, immunologist and researcher, and the founder of Kimera Labs.

According to Benito Novas, Global Stem Cells Group CEO, the world-class event will showcase the historic advances in stem cell medicine achieved since the first symposium was held just two years ago in 2014.

“We’ve come so far since 2014, and this year’s symposium will highlight the strides Global Stem Cells Group has made in these two years,” Novas says. “And it is only fitting that we take the opportunity to acknowledge Dr. Purita’s contributions to our growth.

“This year, we will showcase how far stem cell therapies have come, and provide some of the most influential leaders like Dr. Purita, who understand the potential of these therapies and have dedicated their careers to making them a reality.”

Since 2014, Global Stem Cells Group has joined forces with some of the most prestigious regenerative medicine practitioners in South America as it focuses on growing its services throughout the global community. Stem cell therapies continue to revolutionize the anti-aging aesthetics industry while offering new hope for sufferers of serious chronic debilitating diseases.
