The potential loss of the LSP and a planned expansion to include a broader cardiovascular disease (CVD) Biomarker Standardization Program is of great concern to the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors and its Cardiovascular Biomarker Standardization Steering Committee (CBSSC). Loss of this program will result in a significant setback to the nation's quality assurance program for laboratory testing of CVD biomarkers.

In the presentation, Grekos showed the successful engraftment of stem cells into damaged organs and subsequent regeneration of tissue. The clinical success has spurred a project entailing growing organs for transplant from patients’ own stem cells using technology developed by National Aeronautic Space Association (NASA). In describing details of the stem cells project Grekos stated, “This is the logical next step in harnessing the regenerative power of stem cells. This will be the next phase in turning science into medicine.” Cardiology http://medical.presslib.com/cardiology/1763154.htm http://medical.presslib.com/cardiology/1763154.htm Wed, 17 Dec 2008 05:38:24 -0800 Digimedica provides online, live, and blended medical education for emerging medical technologies.
