"Mr. Brodskys teenage daughter, Willie, recently had a liver transplant operation and he said that no one knows better than me the values of stem cell research as we try to develop things like organ replacement. But he added that we need to focus more on stem cell research and less on creating a general economic development pot.'
I wish Mr. Brodsky mentioned that her treatment was from adult stem cells, and embryonic stem cells never helped a single person.
"I wish Mr. Brodsky mentioned that her treatment was from adult stem cells, and embryonic stem cells never helped a single person"
exactly right.
Time and time again these articles get written without that specification being made.
If they want to spend their money wisely (unusual to ask a bunch of politicians to do) they will specifically designate it to go to adult stem cell research.
Not only is embryonic stem cell research controversial...it is a waste of time.
