Aims:

1) To review studies in animal models in order to grade efficacy of therapeutic interventions and identify research gaps for each animal model and/or disease of interest;

2) To develop new treatment modalities for pre-clinical studies relative to the identified research gaps and priorities that build upon the consensus or standardized protocols defined in WG1;

3) To propose disease-specific therapeutic approaches using PnD based on their potential to differentiate into tissue-specific cells or to induce bystander effects through their secretome.
