The cells have the potential to become many of the different cell types found in the body, including nerve cells. The trials at a hospital in Atlanta will check if the treatment is safe. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-11517680

I've been waiting for this for years. The healing properties of stem cells are easily the greatest medical discovery since penicillin, and I am ashamed to think of the lives that could have been improved or even saved had we not spent so much time dicking around with the morality of their usage.
