Stem cell scientists launch effort to prevent fraudulent treatment - Office of Communications & Public Affairs - Stanford University School of Medicine



"... The use of quotes from well-regarded stem cell scientists and physicians is not uncommon on unscrupulous Internet websites, according to Weissman. Frequently these experts are unaware that their names are being used, and the quotes are fabricated or taken out-of-context from some other source.

As a result of the task force’s efforts to publicize these and other abuses, the ISSCR recently launched a publicly available website (www.closerlookatstemcells.org) where patients can learn more about stem cell biology, learn what questions to ask of potential clinics, and even submit a specific website for further investigation by the ISSCR."
