Notes
[Human Health and Wellbeing] Open Philanthropy recommended a gift of $4,000,000 over five years to Kyoto University to support research led by Professor Mitinori Saitou on mammalian gametogenesis. Dr. Saitou is at the forefront of research into methods of causing induced pluripotent stem cells to develop into oocytes in mice; he and his team aim to extend this work to monkeys and humans. This is one of two grants we recently made to support this work. This follows our April 2019 support and falls within our focus area of scientific research, specifically within our interest in advancing human health and wellbeing.
