Gene Therapy Section Formed Within the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine - Seite 2
"ASGCT's mission to bring together diverse stakeholders and advance the field of genetic and cellular therapies is closely aligned with ARM's goals, and we are looking forward to working with the organization," said Harry L. Malech, M.D., President-Elect of ASGCT. "ARM's staff and members bring a wealth of knowledge involving regulatory and commercialization challenges in the field, and we feel this will nicely complement ASGCT's scientific and medical expertise."
ARM is the leading advocacy organization in the U.S. and Europe representing companies and organizations focused in the regenerative medicine and gene therapy field, and serves as an invaluable resource for all of its members. ASGCT, a nonprofit medical and scientific organization focused on genetic and cellular therapies, recently became a member of ARM and the two groups will work together to lead the advocacy and education efforts for the GTS of ARM.

About the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine:
The Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM) is a Washington, DC-based multi-stakeholder advocacy organization that promotes
legislative, regulatory and reimbursement initiatives necessary to facilitate access to life-giving advances in regenerative medicine. ARM also works to increase public understanding of the field
and its potential to transform human healthcare, providing business development and investor outreach services to support the growth of its member companies and research organizations. Prior to the
formation of ARM in 2009, there was no advocacy organization operating in Washington, DC to specifically represent the interests of the companies, research institutions, investors and patient
groups that comprise the entire regenerative medicine community. Today ARM has more than 150 members and is the leading global advocacy organization in this field. To learn more about ARM or to
