Thanks, Mike. I’ve added it.
Paul, thank you for answering the question. Jenny and I worked relentlessly at the Texas State Capitol. Some of our priority issues have taken several sessions to enact into law. Since our MS diagnosis, we have made it a personal mission to advocate on behalf of those living with chronic disease, providing a positive voice for the patients. Our efforts have never been MS specific. With your expertise in regulations/ethics/stem cells as well as being a cancer survivor, we know you have a very clear understanding of what happens when faced with a life altering illness. We would like to approach you with the idea of assisting us in influencing change for last hope chronic patients. As a result of current regulations we find ourselves no longer able to seek treatment in the US. How can we move forward and where do we start to persuade revisions? In your opinion, can any of the regulations be modified to accommodate those out of time? The field of regenerative medicine is rapidly advancing. Do the regulations need to adjust as well? It seems there is a group of last hope patients who do not have time and are left without options. Has this ever been addressed? Do current regulations accommodate this situation? How would we go about influencing awareness and change? I would love to relay this to Mr. Turner as well. I am not good on Twitter as I am very long winded with my responses.:) I find it very difficult to provide a full understanding of our intent with such limited text. Jenny and I joke frequently as laughter is the best medicine. Sorry about the Bon QuiQui reference regarding your “complicated” order. We couldn’t resist. We joke, however we take our mission very seriously. Have you ever been approached with opening a positive dialogue to try and work together to find common ground to address these needs? Both you and Mr. Turner are respected in your field. We realize we have to start somewhere and simply would like direction as well as an opportunity to develop allies in moving forward. We may not agree 100% on every issue, but working together makes sense in finding a feasible resolution. If you prefer to speak via email, you can reach me at tracyt41@gmail.com. We still have so much to learn and have only recently heard of the Dec. of Helsinki. Are there avenues we have not utilized at this point? We realize the importance of starting somewhere. We believe in moving forward in a positive manner with hopes of making sure all avenues have been researched. We respect current regulations, however how do we move forward and could these regulations be looked at? I know I have posed several questions. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Mr. Paul Knoepfler, I noted at the Stem Cell Summit in Houston, Tx. that the Article 35 of the Declaration of Helsinki was discussed during some of the presentations, and again during the patient panel discussion, what exactly is your take on this document, and why is it being ignored for patients in my particular situation. Who signed this document representing the USA? (I’m a CellTex MS patient) Thanks for your time and expertise. 🙂
Hi Jennifer,
You can just call me “Paul”.
The Article 35 of the Helsinki Declaration is controversial as is the document as a whole. Respected organizations such as the AMA and others in the U.S. have not outright accepted it. I believe that some MDs use it as a justification for risky procedures that have little scientific backing and yet they charge patients at the same time.
Thank you for your answer Paul. What is it about the document as a whole, that the AMA doesn’t accept?
The 2013 Till and McCulloch Meeting will be held in Banff from October 22-25th (formerly the Canadian Stem Cell Network’s AGM)
Thanks, Ben!
You forgot the Second Midwest Conference on Stem Cell Biology and Therapy going on at the moment at Oakland University in Michigan.
Hi there —
Would like to inform you about our Stem Cell Therapy Open House at New York Stem Cell Treatment Center (Free) on October 24th, 2012. http://info.patientsmedical.com/register-now-for-the-stem-cell-therapy-open-house?utm_campaign=Stem-Cell-Open-House&utm_source=Social%20Media
