Insception Difference

Hospital Partnerships

Insception Lifebank is at the forefront of stem cell developments. We are honoured to be the only umbilical cord stem cell program in Canada that has official partnerships with world class medical and research institutions. A portion of revenues generated from cord blood collections are paid to the hospital partners and directed towards supporting clinical research, education, medical equipment and other investments in patient care.
