Dr. David Prentice Receives Bioethics Award


The American Physiological Society, founded in 1887, which describes itself as “a nonprofit devoted to fostering education, scientific research, and dissemination of information in the physiological sciences,” has awarded my friend David Prentice its 2007 Walter C. Randall Award in Biomedical Ethics. Excellent. Prentice has been unfairly pilloried by Big Biotech for his indomitable effort to keep the ongoing successes of adult stem cell research in the news. Good for you, David. I hope there is money attached!
