show that 50% new patient applications originate through Company's
website & 50% from word of mouth. I feel this is a wonderful
trend that we hope continues."
About The Company:
Caribbean International Holdings, Inc. is a holding company for
Regenerative Bio Science, Inc. ("RBSI"). The Company subsidiary
RBSI is focused on helping individuals to protect and ensure their
future quality of life through Adult Stem Cell Incubation and the
practice of regenerative medicine in the United States and the
Dominican Republic. RBSI's mission is not only to allow patients to
store their Stem Cells for future use, but also perform patient
funded stem cell therapies for degenerative diseases such as MS,
Arthritis, Degenerative Heart Diseases, Diabetes and a host of
experimental therapies in the brain trauma disease sector including
CTE. The goal is to become a global leader in establishing
protocols that can be patented and utilized to heal patients around
the world.
Adult stem cells work as the repairmen of the body by
replenishing and regenerating damaged tissues and cells. Certain
conditions have shown marked improvement when treated with adult
stem cells taken from the patient's own body. Regenerative
BioScience is a revolution in healthcare using a patient's own
adult stem cells.

About: Dr. Leonel Liriano
Leonel Francisco Liriano Espinal is a graduate of the Medical
School of Medicine Technical University of Santiago (UTESA). Dr.
Liriano has specialized as an intensive care physician at St.
Joseph Hospital in the city of Santiago de Chile, and has also been
prepared in Clinical Nutrition for Critical Patient in the Auxilio
Mutuo Hospital, in the city of Santurce, Puerto Rico, as well as
studied Intensive Post-operative Cardiovascular at Cedars Hospital
in the City of Miami, Florida and trainings in Neurocritical care
in NYU Hospital, New York City.
Twelve years ago while talking to a surgeon who practiced in
Germany, Dr. Liriano, who is professor of cardiology and intensive
care at the Technological University of Santiago (UTES), became
interested in the process of cell therapy and how this could serve
as hope to treat diseases without possibility of cure. Since then,
Dr. Liriano along with his team of doctors from different
specialties has successfully applied the stem cell-based therapy to
more than 1000 people. This includes 200 sports figures; with the
most prominent being baseball player Bartolo Colon for whom he was
the lead physician.
Bartolo Colon was out of baseball for nearly 2 years because of
a serious shoulder injury, but returned to the sport and became an
All-Star thanks to a stem cell procedure where stem cells were
taken from his body and then re-injected into his shoulder by Dr.
Liriano. This injury previously may have required surgery to be
repaired or the player would be forced into early retirement. This
life changing procedure may now have the potential to extend
athletes careers and shorten rehabilitation time.
About: Rafael Gonzalez, Ph.D.
Dr. Gonzalez has expertise in degenerative disorders involving
the spinal cord and has extensive experience in stem cell culture
and biology from human embryonic, pre-natal and adult sources.
Prior to joining DaVinci Biosciences, Dr. Gonzalez served as a
Research Scientist at PrimeGen Biotech where he was responsible for
the design and execution of experiments involving adult (bone
marrow, menstrual blood, adipose) and pre-natal stem cells (neural,
bone marrow, liver, gonadal) for potential clinical application.
Dr. Gonzalez was also responsible for developing PrimeGen's
pre-clinical stem cell/spinal cord injury model.
Dr. Gonzalez developed his thesis at the Reeve-Irvine Research
Center, University of California, Irvine, under the advisory of Dr.
Hans Keirstead, entitled: "The Role of the Chemokine CXCL10 in
Secondary Degeneration Following Spinal Cord Injury". Pre-clinical
studies conducted during this time lead by Dr. Gonzalez were aimed
at reducing secondary degenerative effects. The studies conducted
by Dr. Gonzalez and Dr. Keirstead precipitated the start-up of
Ability Biomedical, a company that developed anti-IP10 antibody, an
antibody which can be used to treat several degenerative disorders
such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and SCI. Ability
Biomedical was purchased by Medarex in 2007 which was purchased by
Bristol-Myers Squibb that sponsors a phase II clinical trial using
anti-IP10 antibody (MDX-1100). He also was involved with
preclinical studies in the development of the use of human
embryonic stem cells into spinal cord injury.
Dr. Gonzalez has several scientific publications in the field of
stem cells, spinal cord injury and the immune system.
Dr. Gonzalez received his BS in Biological Science and his Ph.D.
in Anatomy and Neurobiology from the University of California,
Irvine, CA.
