The Stem Cell Report and Stem Cell Summit Webcast DVD

Stem cells will one day provide effective low-cost treatment for diabetes, some forms of blindness, heart attack, stroke, spinal cord damage and many other health problems. Animal stem cell studies are already very promising and

some clinical trials using stem cells have been initiated. The Burrill Stem Cell Report & Srem Cell Summit Webcast provide a comprehensive look at the latest research taking place around the world.
