New York Stem Cell Science works collaboratively with the Empire State Stem Cell Science Board to implement support of stem cell science in New York.  Their goal is “to make grants to basic, applied, translational or other research and development activities that will advance scientific discoveries in fields related to stem cell biology.”  This innovative and energetic program has made major contributions toward stem cell biology discovery, implementation of new knowledge, and training of new investigators.  Story Landis is now participating in the Scientific Review function, to assure continued growth and success of the program.
