Hey, thanks for posting this.<p>Interesting discussion about the safety profiles. It would suck to introduce new risks for tumors, I hope this research moves forward safely.<p>&gt; This is demanding, extremely complex research that I’d say is harder than rocket science. Also, we have to be very careful to avoid hype. &gt; You can see just how badly rushing unproven stem cells for eye problems at the far other end of the spectrum where unproven, for-profit stem cell clinics have sold offerings to patients, reportedly leading to retinal detachment and loss of vision.
