It is improbable that this will result in a cure for anything in the next 15 years. Embryonic derived treatments are finally reaching trials, for instance Geron's spinal cord repair trial has entered phase 1 human testing. All adult stem cell treatments have issues with gene expression and are a decade away at least from trials, except for very small experimental pre trials. The so-called "ethical" concerns over embryonic stem cell treatments is a gigantic lie perpetrated on an ill informed and even proudly stupid public. The church applauded the work of fertility clinics until scientists claimed they could use the excess collected eggs to save millions of American lives. The church fought for decades against surgery, autopsy, antibiotics, blood transfusion, you name it, if it saves human life the church is against it. The church's survival depends on a public that lives in daily fear of a fiery hell and an early death. There is no ethical concern in reality, the public has been whipped into a frenzy by lies.
