[quote:acf20]A South Korean woman paralyzed for 20 years is walking again after scientists say they repaired her damaged spine using stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood.[/quote:acf20]
[quote:acf20]Medical research has shown stem cells can develop into replacement cells for damaged organs or body parts. Unlocking that potential could see cures for diseases that are at present incurable, or even see the body generate new organs to replace damaged or failing ones.[/quote:acf20]
this is awsome, i cant wait to see what happen next.
i hope they find a cure for cancer out of this.
