Stem Cells
Background Information
After the Fall 2004 passage of Proposition 71, California has become a haven for stem cell research. UC Merced has received more than $8 million in funding from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine to back our stem cell consortium - passing up research institutions with much longer histories - because of our commitment to remaining on the forefront of this important avenue of research.
UC Merced professors can contribute information to your stories about stem cell research geared toward innovative research instrumentation, cancer treatment, heart disease treatment and bioengineering applications.
