April 9, 2015 | By EJ Lane
"The operators of a pair of private hospital networks, one in Japan and the other in South Korea, signed a memorandum of understanding to cooperate on research into regenerative medicine, the work ranging from education activities to clinical applications.
The MOU was signed by the chairmen of Otsubo Medical of Japan and CHA Health systems of South Korea, each an operator of several private hospitals, according to Nikkei.
The two companies agreed to conduct joint clinical trials using induced pluripotent stem cells. CHA has already conducted clinical trials involving embryonic stem cells and has been working on iPS cell treatments.

A branch from CHA have hair as one of their major projects:

CHA work with iPSCs, so it could be a solution like Terskish's process, but they also work on stemcells activators, hair cycle regulators
There's the names of the lead professors, I will try to find their mails to ask them about any clinical trials planned for a medication or stemcell treatment they work on, and about the recent progress on iPSC safety
