Our mission is to protect health and support a happier life for each person through iPSC technology.
Peace of mind with iPSCs
Happier, healthier lives with iPSC technology
The goal of I Peace is to alleviate the suffering of disease patients as quickly as possible, and help healthy people achieve a higher quality of life. Our motivation is deeply heartfelt. We at I Peace think carefully every day and night what steps we can take to achieve that future, now.
We have successfully developed a variety of innovative technologies related to iPSCs but we know we are not done yet. We are continuously working to make our technology user-friendly, to solve any barriers to application and to connect that with making lives happier. We have high ambitions but our feet are planted firmly in the ground to deliver our promise. We are forging our way forward to make iPSC technology accessible and widely implemented in society.
Currently, a growing amount of clinical research is being conducted with iPSCs, but manufacturing iPSCs is time and cost-intensive, making mass production difficult. The number of clinical-grade iPSC lines that are accessible currently is not enough to support this growth, and it is especially difficult for iPSC-based personalized medicine. I Peace will continue to realize mass production and cost reduction of clinical iPSCs.

iPSCs are an abbreviation for induced pluripotent stem cells and your stem cells for life and health, with ethical origins. They have been developed by Professor Shinya Yamanaka of the Kyoto University iPS Cell Research Institute, who received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2012 for his work. iPS cells can be made from human skin or blood, and can be converted into various cells of the body such as neurons, heart cells, cartilage, blood cells, T cells, chondrocytes, hepatocytes, and β cells that produce insulin. It is also possible to use iPSCs made from one’s own cells for cell therapy, in which case the risk of immune rejection is low. Only the necessary amount of the necessary cell type can be generated and transplanted, making it an ideal source for regenerative medicine. Clinical trials have started all over the world, including in Japan and the United States. Additionally, iPS cell technology enables producing the necessary amount of a particular type of somatic cells from patients with various diseases. These somatic cells can then be used for specific drug screening, toxicity testing, and diagnostics. Researchers have also used iPSC-derived somatic cells to investigate disease mechanisms and as a result, various effective drug candidates have been discovered or re-discovered. iPSCs are indispensable for shaping the future of medical care.
Careers
I Peace is looking for people who share our mission and want to be part of our team. Let’s work together to advance iPSC technology and make people’s lives happier and healthier. With locations in the US and Japan, we are looking for people to grow our innovative business together primarily in those locations. At I Peace, we value people not only from the iPSC field, but also experts from other fields. We believe that the convergence of different scientific discipline and various backgrounds is the source of our innovation. What would you like to contribute to I Peace?
