Californias Stem Cell Institute Progressing Strongly Toward Its Goal對California幹細胞研究所取得進展的強烈走向它的目標
The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM), the state agency Proposition 71 created to manage California’s $3 billion stem cell research program, is nearing its second anniversary.美國加州理工學院的再生醫學（ cirm ） ，國家機構命題71創造了管理加州的30億美元的幹細胞研究計劃，正在接近其第二個週年。 CIRM is making strong progress toward its goal of turning stem cells into therapies and cures, despite litigation that challenges voters’ right to pay for research and that currently limits research funding. cirm正在強烈的進展，朝著目標，把幹細胞療法醫治，儘管訴訟的挑戰，選民的權利，以支付研究和限制，目前的研究經費。
But thanks to $14 million in private financial support, CIRM awarded $12.1 million in grants to 16 California institutions.但由於1400萬美元在私人的財政支持， cirm批出1 210萬美元的贈款至16日在加利福尼亞州的機構。 They will train 169 stem cell researchers, a new generation of scientists that may harness the promise of stem cell research.他們將培養169幹細胞研究，新一代的科學家可能利用的承諾，幹細胞研究。 The grants were awarded on the basis of scientific merit, through a competitive process.該贈款基礎上授予的科學價值，透過競爭過程。
To administer grants and regulate research, CIRM adopted strong policies and standards:管理贈款和規範的研究， cirm採取強有力的政策和標準：
• Robust conflict of interest policies for the board, staff and outside experts •強大的利益衝突政策委員會，工作人員和外部專家
• The most comprehensive medical and ethical regulations in the country for stem cell research •最全面的醫療和道德規例，在該國幹細胞研究
• Intellectual property policies that outline how California shares in revenues generated by CIRM-funded research and that require public health care plans to have access to stem cell therapies •知識產權政策大綱如何加州的股份產生的收入cirm資助的研究和需要的公共醫療計劃，有機會獲得幹細胞療法
• A scientific strategic plan to guide CIRM funding decisions for a decade •一個科學的戰略計劃，以指導cirm資金的決定了十年
These initiatives were reviewed, debated, modified and approved through an open process that engaged hundreds of experts, interest groups and private citizens.這些倡議進行了審查，討論，修改和批准通過一個開放的過程，從事數百名專家，利益團體和公民個人。 We are grateful for their participation — their contributions make CIRM a better agency.我們感謝他們的參與-他們的貢獻，使c irm更好的機構。
