Mission Statement
The Coalition for Regenerative Stem Cell Medicine (CRSCM) seeks to advance medical treatments that use the body's own stem cells to cure diseased or injured tissues. Cord blood is a preferred source of stem cells for regenerative therapies because they have demonstrated pluripotent capabilities and are currently being studied in human clinical trials to treat conditions and diseases that have no cure today.
Through engagement with the federal government, CRSCM seeks to expand public understanding of the medical value of cord blood stem cells; improve access to cord blood banking through greater affordability, and thereby enable personal responsibility in future healthcare decisions. Above all, CRSCM considers cord blood to be an irreplaceable health resource that should never be thrown away.
