Adult Stem Cell Research Grows
While controversy continues to rage over embryonic stem cell research, the adult stem cell research industry is experiencing rapid growth. For instance, Cord Blood Registry, the world's largest adult stem cell bank, last week reported a growth rate of 83 percent, signaling that non-destructive adult stem cell research is being embraced by people around the world. CBR co-founder Stephen Grant credits the growth, in part, to a greater awareness of the power of adult stem cells in regenerative medicine. The company preserves more than 260,000 units of cells for clients around the world. Its laboratory in Tucson, which is the largest facility of its kind, has a total capacity for more than ten million units. (Lifenews)
