@lindahearing, I thought the Columbia study was on hiatus right now. Was your application accepted? It's part of a three institution study -- Columbia, Hopkins and the University of Kansas. It's not stem cell though. It's tissue regeneration using their drug CGF166.
Here's a description of the trial from the government clinical trials website: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02132130

CGF166 is a virus or derivative but they don't tell you how it works or helps. I was hoping it would five more details and how and why stuff
