Brief description Extremely premature babies are at serious risk of developing a life threatening chronic lung disease known as bronchopulmonary dysplasia. This is expensive to treat and even babies who survive often end up with lifelong complications. Our team believes that nanoparticles released by placental stem cells have the ability to reverse the disease and that this can be administered without complex medical tools so that parents can administer it themselves after discharge.
