International Stem Cell Policy Program
- KEY PEOPLE
- PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
-
The International Stem Cell Policy Program is an initiative sponsored by the Baker Institute Science and Technology Policy Program. The mission of the program is to bring together scientists, ethicists, policymakers, media experts, and community and business leaders to find new ways to engage the general public in a dialogue on these vital issues. The program includes a U.S. conference series titled "Stem Cells: Saving Lives or Crossing Lines," a series of international conferences, major public policy research and publications, workshops to bring together scholars and scientists from the international community, and conference reports on the workshops.
Support for this program has been generously provided by the State of Qatar and the Amir of Qatar, His Highness Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani, through the State of Qatar Endowment for International Stem Cell Policy.Related Links
