Business Wire
Piper Jaffray (NYSE: PJC) today announced that Edward Tenthoff,
a senior research analyst covering the biotechnology sector,
participated in a historical conference on adult stem cell research
held at the Vatican last week.
The International Vatican Adult Stem Cell Conference brought
together a select group of scientists, physicians, religious
leaders, industry representatives, politicians, the media and
students to raise awareness of the therapeutic potential of adult
stem cells. The event seeks to reduce misperceptions in cellular
research and foster dialogue in order to identify unmet medical
needs that can benefit from cell therapy.
Tenthoff was one of just 350 in attendance and was responsible
for moderating a cardiovascular medicine panel of leading
physicians, researchers and industry representatives.
"This event cemented our view that a revolution is quietly
taking place in stem cell medicine. We say 'quietly' because the
majority of the public nor investors realize just how close
lifesaving therapies using stem cells actually are to the market,"
according to Tenthoff. "We see several investment opportunities for
Piper Jaffray clients as new pivotal data, product approvals and
partnerships emerge creating shareholder value."
In addition, Piper Jaffray will be co-hosting RegenMed Investor
Day, the first-ever investor event organized specifically for the
regenerative medicine sector, on April 17 in New York. Speakers
include Jeff Jonas, president of Shire Regenerative Medicine and
Kieran Murphy, president and CEO of GE Healthcare Life Sciences. At
this event, Tenthoff will be moderating a panel entitled
"Regenerative Medicine in Wound Healing and Tissue
Engineering."
