Vega Stem Cell, a leading institution in regenerative medicine and cell therapy, recently hosted representatives from Dhurakij Pundit University (DPU) and Thammasat University for a collaborative dialogue focused on advancing stem cell education, research, and treatment in Thailand.
During the visit, Dr. Peerayut Mungkang, Associate Dean and Deputy Executive Director of Graduate Studies at DPU, and Assistant Professor Buraphon Singha-na from the Chulabhorn International College of Medicine at Thammasat University, took part in an in-depth review of Vega’s current initiatives in regenerative medicine, particularly in stem cell therapy. The meeting aimed to identify collaborative opportunities between the institutions, united by a common goal to expand the clinical use of cell therapy and foster advanced academic training in this fast-developing field.
Launch of Academic Collaboration: A Keynote on Aging and Cell Biology
As an initial step in this academic partnership, Vega Stem Cell has been invited to deliver a keynote lecture at Dhurakij Pundit University’s College of Integrative Medicine on Sunday, October 19, 2025, from 13:00 to 16:00. The session will take place onsite at DPU’s Bangkok campus.
A representative from Vega will present two advanced topics:
- Cell Biology of Aging
- Hallmarks of Aging
This lecture is tailored for graduate-level students—both master’s and doctoral candidates—enrolled in the Health and Beauty Business Management Program under the College of Integrative Medicine. The presentation aims to provide a deeper understanding of the cellular mechanisms that drive aging and to explore how stem cell-based therapies are set to transform anti-aging and wellness practices.
In addition, the lecture will highlight the expanding role of regenerative medicine in modern healthcare, with emphasis on the clinical application of cell therapy in aesthetic medicine, metabolic disorders, orthopedic repair, and neurodegenerative diseases.
Vision for a Dedicated Stem Cell Education Program at DPU
In addition to the keynote presentation, initial discussions took place regarding the development of a structured academic course at Dhurakij Pundit University’s medical faculty. This proposed programme would focus on stem cell research, therapeutic applications, and the clinical translation of regenerative treatments. The course is intended to contribute significantly to Thailand’s ambition to train highly qualified professionals in the field of regenerative medicine.
This joint academic initiative aims to provide students, researchers, and medical practitioners with an in-depth and well-rounded understanding of core subjects such as stem cell biology, clinical-grade cell processing, regulatory standards, treatment protocol design, and methods for applying research in clinical practice. The collaboration also aspires to position Bangkok as a regional centre of excellence for stem cell education within Southeast Asia.
The Promise of Cell Therapy: Addressing Unmet Medical Needs
Stem cell therapy is widely regarded as one of the most groundbreaking developments in contemporary medicine. By harnessing the body’s natural ability to regenerate, scientists and healthcare professionals are creating new possibilities for treating conditions that were once considered irreversible or difficult to manage.
This therapeutic approach offers significant potential in repairing damaged tissues and organs, regulating immune responses, and slowing or reversing the effects of aging at the cellular level. Promising results have been observed in the treatment of osteoarthritis, autoimmune disorders, neurological conditions, and other age-related diseases.
Vega Stem Cell is a leading contributor to this evolving field, supported by a robust research and development platform and advanced clinical infrastructure. The company utilizes cutting-edge techniques for the isolation, cultivation, and application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and related biologics. All procedures are carefully monitored to ensure safety, effectiveness, and compliance with global medical standards, reinforcing Vega’s position at the forefront of regenerative healthcare innovation.
Education as the Foundation of Clinical Advancement
The collaboration between Vega and leading academic institutions such as Dhurakij Pundit University (DPU) and Thammasat University highlights a shared commitment to closing the gap between scientific discovery and clinical application. Establishing a strong educational foundation is crucial to preparing future healthcare professionals with the most current, evidence-based approaches in regenerative medicine.
Vega’s training programmes go beyond theoretical instruction, offering practical experience through hands-on workshops, live clinical demonstrations, and immersive research opportunities. Supported by its medical and scientific advisory boards, Vega also provides continuous mentorship to its academic partners, encouraging the development of innovative therapeutic approaches both in research settings and clinical practice.
Why Thailand Is Poised to Lead in Stem Cell Innovation
Thailand’s strategic location, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and forward-looking medical ecosystem position it as an ideal hub for stem cell research and innovation. Strong government support and the continual development of regulatory policies have created an environment that encourages investment in biotechnology and regenerative medicine.
Through partnerships with leading institutions such as Dhurakij Pundit University and Thammasat University, Vega Stem Cell is helping to establish a nationwide framework for excellence in regenerative healthcare. This network is designed not only to benefit domestic patients but also to capture international attention and collaboration.
As more academic and clinical institutions integrate regenerative technologies into their educational programs and clinical practices, Thailand is well positioned to become a regional leader in stem cell therapy and translational medicine—advancing both patient care and scientific progress.
