Perspectives
I have worked in cord blood stem cell technology for over 30 years and have published this and many other papers. I also published my book, The Regeneration Promise https://www.amazon.co.uk/Regeneration-Promise-Facts-behind-Therapies-ebook/dp/B08QCND9XM/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8, in December 2020 which includes information about cord blood stem cells for the general reader.
