In an exclusive tete-a-tete with TOI, Shetty spoke about his future plans for India especially the coastal city. "I began my research on stem cells around three decades ago when it was still in its very nascent stage. I got into cartilage and bone repair area. The biggest breakthrough was in 2000, where we did the first bone transplant surgery in the UK. To get such facility to India, with help of Nitte University, we set-up a multi crore facility in Deralakatte campus three years ago and a similar lab set-up in Hubballi for Dharmasthala hospital," explained Dr Shetty.
He adds in the second phase his team wants go for cloning. "We want to clone high-milk yielding cow and pig for meat production. To start the process, we want to have clinical application in five years or by 2020 in Mangaluru," he asserted.

Mangaluru & Udupi need enough Centres of Excellences for Data Science to work on various domains in which they want to lead like Health Informatics including
Pharmacy Informatics & Ayurinformatics, Marine Informatics, Petroleum/Manufacturing Informatics, Education Informatics, Tourism Informatics, Agriculture Informatics. And institutes like Alva's may be on weather/space informatics as exception but focusing on identified domains is better for avoiding brain drain. If Subsea Data Centre is feasible near Mangalore then it would be great!
