Mr. Like Wu, MD, Ph.D, the founder of Wu Medical Center, is one of the pioneers in the world with regards to using stem cells to treat patients with various difficult-to-treat medical conditions. During the course of his more than 30 years of clinical experience in neurology and internal medicine, he’s treated more than 30,000 patients. His laboratory research in stem cell started in 1987 and extended to clinical applications in late 90’s. The clinical stem cell technologies he invented include autologous stem cell activation, intracorporeal cell control and targeted localization.
These unique and advanced technologies have allowed Dr. Wu and his medical team to treat more than 7,000 patients with excellent outcome since the year 2000, representing a breakthrough progress in treating degenerative neurological diseases (motor neuron disease, Parkinson's disease, dementia and Friedreich ataxia, etc.) , nerve injuries (brain trauma, spinal cord injury and cerebral stroke, etc.), abnormal neurodevelopment（cerebral palsy, epilepsy and autism, etc.), certain type of eye diseases (retinal/macular/diseases/optic nerve diseases) and internal diseases (diabetes and renal insufficiency, etc) and bone/joint diseases.
Dr. Wu also published more than 40 papers and articles in various professional medical science journals.

Dr. Wang is Associate Director and the Head Neurologist of the WSCMC. She is one of the China's most experienced researchers of stem cell treatment technology. She has learned from Professor Li Chunyan, the only neurology science academician in China and an expert of cerebrovascular disease. Dr. Wang has successfully treated cerebrovascular disease, neuro-degenerative diseases (such as Parkinson's Disease, dementia, etc), and demyelinating diseases (such as MS, optic neuritis, etc). Dr. Wang has rich experience of the stem cell treatment for brain injury and spinal cord injury. She has done the research work for the Hebei Natural Science Foundation project "Establishment of Organotypic Culture Model of Spinal Cord for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis" and for another project "Effect of Estrogen on Neural Stem Cell's Proliferation and Differentiation Post Cerebral Ischemia". Dr. Wang has done research in the area of motor neuron disease and brain protection therapy post cerebral ischemia in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University (USA). She has published more than 40 research articles on diabetes, cardiac and cerebral vascular diseases as well as on treating patients in crisis situations. Dr. Wang is a member of the Chinese Medical Association, China Physicians Association, World Brilliant Chinese Association, and the Distinguished Researcher of China Science Management Committee.
