Michael J. Fox On Stem Cell Research

Michael J. Fox, the celebrity face of Parkinson’s disease, is a strong advocate for stem cell research. The Michael J. Fox Foundation has raised and channelled $35 million toward Parkinson’s research in the past four years, making it the second-largest funding source after the US government. Studies have shown that stem cell based therapies have the potential to provide treatment and a cure for Parkinson’s and other neurodegenerative conditions. Speaking about anti-research legislation, existing and planned, Fox says “to limit or disallow that avenue of research is fundamentally wrong.”
