Promote stem cell research ... donate your baby's umbilical cord
Posted Oct 01 2008 10:28pm
For those who object to the use of leftover IVF embryos and therapeutic cloning for embryonic stem cell research, there is another alternative:
Donate your soon-to-be born baby's umbilical cord for public storage so that it can be used for research or to treat or save the life of an unrelated person.
The
Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences issued a report last year calling for the establishment of a
National Cord Blood Stem Cell Bank Program;
what the
National Marrow Donor Program
is doing is the first step.
[thanks, Karama Neal!]
