I think that the discoveries of antibiotics and vaccines have contributed to the improvement of the quality of life, making it possible to prevent contagious diseases.

IPS cells can become a powerful tool to develop new drugs to cure intractable diseases because they can be made from patients' somatic cells.

There's a quality of life in Maine which is this singular and unique. I think. It's absolutely a world onto itself.

Patients' lives are more important than embryos. I do want to avoid the use of embryos if possible.

My goals over the decade include to develop new drugs to treat intractable diseases by using iPS cell technology and to conduct clinical trials using it on a few patients with Parkinson's diseases, diabetes or blood diseases.

The 'life' in 'pro-life' denotes not the quality of life, but life itself.
