Incredible to see some promising results in stem cell research. Hopefully a safe and successful application can give a boost to some other areas where stem cells might prove useful (like maybe one day we can regrow damaged heart tissue like this).

Interesting - they had done surgery before, but not with stem cells. 6 babies operated on, results were very good and they are recruiting for phase 2
