"We are excited to continue our collaboration with the Reeve Foundation on this event, which provides an excellent opportunity to highlight the important work being done by for-profit and non-profit organizations alike and to broaden awareness and impact for those affected by this debilitating condition," stated Brian M. Culley, Lineage CEO. "Our aim at Lineage is to improve recovery and mobility by replacing the cells which are destroyed following a spinal cord injury. We are encouraged by the initial clinical testing which has been performed with our approach and look forward to continuing our work. In certain rare disease settings, we have seen that raising investor awareness can lead to greater investment, which can help to accelerate new treatments. This year’s symposium aims to build on the success of last year’s event and to continue to foster open and collaborative dialogue among leading experts, companies, researchers, persons with lived experience, caregivers, advocacy organizations, regulators and members of the investment community."
