Ask the Stem Cell Team About Strokes
To join us for this special "Ask the Stem Cell Team About Strokes" go to this link Wednesday, March 25 at noon - 10157513312437144?s_bl=1&s_sc=10157516368937144&s_sw=0&s_vt=api-s&a=AbxG_iWJR6_kPnrg
There’s a lot of misinformation about stem cell research. There are claims that are not based on solid science and clinics that are offering so-called “treatments” that are unproven, even dangerous for patients. Now you have a chance to talk to the experts in the field and get solid answers from them about what’s working, what’s not, and how you can find a therapy that might be appropriate for you.
This year alone almost 62,000 Americans will be diagnosed with leukemia; almost 23,000 will die from the disease. That’s why CIRM is funding four clinical trials targeting leukemia, hoping to develop new approaches to treat, and even cure this disease.
Join us on Thursday, August 29th from 1pm – 2pm (PDT) for a special Facebook Live “Ask the Stem Cell Team About Leukemia” where we’ll be joined by an expert and patient advocate to discuss advances in stem cell treatments and the hope for the future.”
