Stem cells hold the promise of treating a host of diseases in the future. Today in Farmington, some of the top Stem Cell researchers in the country gathered to share the latest discoveries in this new technology.
Every two years, Connecticut hosts StemConn, a full day symposium that looks at the latest research and trends in this promising technology.
