Response: X Cell Center Website Blog 12

X Cell is actually a complete website about a particular private institute in Germany dedicated to stem cell research and treatment. I felt like this website gave me a lot of information and I will definitely be going back and digging deeper into the site. There were also many contacts given on that site that I will try to get in touch with soon for more information on the company and the research their company is doing.

I learned a lot of new information on what adult stem cells can treat. For example, I was unaware that Alzheimer's disease could be treated through stem cell therapy. I think it's amazing that I found a place where many of the treatments I've been researching are being put into action. I feel like reading through this website has been a mini break through because it's marking even more growth in the world of stem cell research and treatment. I find it strange that the things we are researching here in the states is being put into action in Germany. Why is that? Why don't we have this information yet? Why are we just getting the grants now? There are dozens of success stories on the X Cell website. One is a girl with autism was treated using stem cell therapies, and a great percentage of her symptoms improved. I can't wait for there to be opportunities like this here in the US.
