Monday, October 3, 2011. Is booting up. Our website. Is working, our twitter feed. Is, well, feeding, and this blog is now posting! I'm excited about the possibilities of this new (ad)venture and I hope you will join me in it. Our special focus is on identifying and fostering those rare but crucial bridges between academia and industry. Our consultants are primarily advanced degree scientists, hopefully several will contribute to this blog and share their unique perspectives. On that note, please comment!

Science Consulting: October 2011

Monday, October 17, 2011. Why Embryonic Stem Cells Are Important. I recently complained on Facebook. About a federal court ruling which outlawed public funding of embryonic stem (ES) cell research. Most comments were sympathetic, but many of my friends wanted to know why ES cells were important. What can ES cells do that adult stem cells can't? Do is make an entire organ, at least not a complex, vital organ like a kidney or heart. This is why heart attacks are serious business - you only get one heart.
