Gordon Keller, one of the world’s leading stem cell scientists, is coming home to Canada.戈登凱勒,一個世界領先的幹細胞的科學家,是未來家庭到加拿大。 He will lead University Health Network’s new McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, which opens this afternoon at the MaRS Centre.他將帶領大學衛生網絡的新mcewen中心再生醫學,其中開幕儀式今午於火星中心。 Keller, named by New York Magazine in January as one of six doctors the city couldn’t afford to lose, will leave his post as professor of gene and cell medicine at Mount Sinai School of Medicine and start full-time in Toronto in January.凱勒命名,由紐約雜誌在明年1月份作為一個醫生,六個城市,不能輸了,會離開自己的崗位上的教授基因與細胞醫學的西奈山醫學院,並開始全職在多倫多1月。

Keller credits Canada’s less-restrictive stance on human embryonic stem cell research with helping him make his decision to move north.凱勒學分加拿大的較少限制性立場,對人類胚胎幹細胞研究與幫助他,使他決定向北移。 But he says it was the critical mass of world-class stem cell researchers working in world-class institutes that clinched the deal.但是他說,它是匯聚世界一流的幹細胞研究工作,在世界一流的研究機構認為,兩奪這項交易。

Keller is one of the brightest, most successful stem cell researchers in the world.凱勒是其中最亮的,最成功的幹細胞研究,在世界上。 He has been a mover and shaker in this field for years.他一直是動機和振動篩在這一領域多年。 He probably has the best track record in the world at developing different kinds of tissues from human embryonic stem cells, says Dr. Christopher Paige, vice president of research at the University Health Network.他大概有最好的跟踪記錄,在世界上發展不同類型的組織中,從人類胚胎幹細胞博士說,克里斯托弗佩奇的研究副總裁在大學保健網絡。 Keller was recruited to lead the McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, or MCRM, last winter and will bring his entire research program with him.凱勒被招募的帶領mcewen中心再生醫學,或mcrm ,去年冬天,並會帶來他的整個研究計畫,他的說法。

Keller is no stranger to Canada.凱勒來說並不陌生到加拿大。 A Saskatchewan native, Keller studied at the University of Saskatchewan and at the University of Alberta, coming to Toronto in 1973 for a post-doctoral fellowship at the Ontario Cancer Institute. 1薩斯喀徹溫本土,凱勒就讀於大學,薩斯喀徹溫省和亞伯達大學來多倫多, 1973年為博士後獎學金,在加拿大安大略省癌症研究所。 He spent much of his research career in the United States, where he became best known for his seminal research in human embryonic stem cells.他花了很多他的研究生涯,在美國,在那裡他成了最出名的,他的開創性研究,在人類胚胎幹細胞。

Canada’s strong tradition in stem cell science is also an attraction.加拿大的強大傳統,在幹細胞科學的,也是有吸引力的景點。 The era of modern stem cell research began in Toronto in the early 1960s with the work of James Till and Ernest McCulloch at the Ontario Cancer Institute, says Dick.時代的現代幹細胞研究開始於多倫多,在20世紀60年代初與工作的詹姆斯和Ernest McCulloch的,在安大略省癌症研究所說,迪克。 The two are credited with proving the existence of stem cells.兩記與證明存在幹細胞。
