Biography

Yo Oguma is a doctoral researcher specializing in Muse cells (Multilineage-differentiating Stress-Enduring cells)—a class of pluripotent-like, stress-tolerant stem cells with non-tumorigenic properties. His work explores the differentiation mechanisms and therapeutic applications of Muse cells across various medical contexts. Yo Oguma's early but impactful work in stem cell biology and regenerative medicine—particularly on Muse cell therapy mechanisms and applications—positions him as a promising young scientist. His findings contribute to the evolving landscape of cell-based therapies with potential for future clinical translation.
