Stem cell therapies are gaining attention as one of the most interesting approaches in the field of nerve repair therapies. Japan and Italy are leaders in neuroscience, and we already presented the work of Italian researchers operating in the field in Japan (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XWPfvGcZWfM\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XWPfvGcZWfM<\/a>). The event aims at showcasing the two Countries&#8217; research excellence on the use of stem cells and regenerative medicine for neurological repair. The webinar is\u00a0organized in collaboration with the Neuroscience Institute Cavalieri Ottolenghi (NICO), University of Turin, under the framework of the Italian Research Day in Japan 2022 and of the Memorandum of Cooperation in the Field of Health and Medical Sciences between the Japan\u2019s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and Italy\u2019s Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue:<\/strong> Webex platform<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 8 June 2022, 15.50-18.00 Japan time (8.50-11.00, Italy time)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Registration link:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSenMbDaiHbNnQeRo3Ju6jLMqTzdPnP-DVYtMmw0OvSJpP4DXw\/viewform?usp=pp_ur\">https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSenMbDaiHbNnQeRo3Ju6jLMqTzdPnP-DVYtMmw0OvSJpP4DXw\/viewform?usp=pp_ur<\/a>l<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROGRAM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>15.50-15.54:<\/strong> Welcome and Opening Remarks &#8211; <strong>H.E.
