I do not get amazed much these days, but I was watching 60 minutes yesterday, and I could not believe my eyes. They grew an ear with a few cells then they talked about growing heart valves. Wow, what this regenrative medicine would do for those who are about to die on the transplant list is amazing. This type of medicine may also cure cancer as it did for a man with one of the deadliest forms of cancer in esophogial cancer. Instead of doing a procedure where they take the esophagus out and tie the stomach upwards they actually grew a knew esophagus with these cells from a pig called ECM. Amazing. Take a look at the video. I believe there are the other clips on www.60minutes.com

Wow this is amazing. I really don't think we were ever supposed to figure these things out, but it's amazing that we have managed to come this far.
David, I was absolutely speechless watching this. If I was a kid looking into fields or careers I would definitely think about going into regenerative medicine.
