In March 2006, UCSD, Salk, Burnham and TSRI announced their commitment to join forces in establishing an independent, non-profit consortium dedicated to stem cell research.
|
Their joint San Diego Consortium for Regenerative Medicine is establishing a jointly operated facility dedicated to stem cell research, while pursuing funding to support collaborative projects. The Consortium followed the passage in 2004 of Proposition 71. The initiative set aside $3 billion for the formation of the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) to support stem cell research in California.
Major research centers throughout the state are gearing up to participate in this endeavor, pending the resolution of lawsuits challenging the initiative.
