Kyoto University Professor Shinya Yamanaka says he will continue his research in stem cell technology to use it in treating patients. The Nobel Laureate is known for discovering iPS cells.
Yamanaka was speaking at a symposium in Boston on Wednesday to recognize progress in research and clinical application of iPS cells. It was part of the annual meeting of the International Society for Stem Cell Research.

Prof. Yamanaka worked very hard to get this work done; he once organized a marathon to rais efunding for his lab. After winning the Nobel prize, he also did not forget to thank the lab staff who stuck with him despite the lack of funding. An embarrassed ministry of education was found allocating lots of research funding for this field in the following year :-p.
