Researchers discover human embryonic stem cells are the ultimate perpetual fuel cell

by philanthropist Michael G. DeGroote. The institute has a research focus on the molecular determinants of cancer and tissue repair and is building scientific momentum.

This discovery of a new fundamental understanding about how human stem cells develop is the kind of scientific work which has already put this Institute on the map as the leader in this field, said John Kelton, dean and vice-president of McMasters Faculty of Health Sciences.

Mick Bhatia said that he and his scientific team have been working for the past year to prove themselves wrong, but as every test confirmed their discovery, it was time to submit the work for international peer review from other experts.

This will be critical for future developments involving drug and gene screening of human ES cells, that will be required before clinical use of human stem cells of this kind, he said.
