quote of the day

“I’m very grateful that President Obama has lifted the restrictions on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. These new rules will now make it possible for scientists to move forward. I urge researchers to make use of the opportunities that are available to them, and to do all they can to fulfill the promise that stem cell research offers.

Countless people, suffering from many different diseases, stand to benefit from the answers stem cell research can provide. We owe it to ourselves and to our children to do everything in our power to find cures for these diseases – and soon.

As I’ve said before, time is short, and life is precious.”

  1. It's so very early, but in a few short years, this day could be the defining moment of the Obama presidency...economies, wars, politics come and go, but the downstream effects of this could be generational. I hope Obama does more than this, but this right here is something.
