The International Placenta Stem Cell Society is an independent and non-profit organization which promotes advances in placenta-derived stem cell research and development, with the final aim of applying these cells for cell therapy.
IPLASS encourages cooperative research activities, favors interaction between its members, and promotes staff mobility through the organization of a scientific meeting every two years. The Society also provides endorsement for scientific events, promotion and support of young researchers' education, and the maintenance of this web site as a tool for constant and effective connection amongst its members.

The society is conscious of the need for science to consider and address ethical issues, and members are therefore obliged to observe the regulations as set out in the Declaration of Helsinki.
It is presumed that society members will not favour the use of human embryonic stem cells, and in particular, society money is never to be used for this purpose. |
