Default 15K to participate in study?!
That sounds encouraging!

So much so that I searched the clinical trials .gov files for the study and found the recruitment for a trial by a company referenced in the article, StemGenex.

(not the one in australia)

https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/...em+cell&rank=8

I called them to enquire about the trial and they told me that it costs $15,000 to participate in the study "because everyone that participates gets treated".
Has anyone heard of this before? Am I just being naive? The wave of the future? #immoral
