#JPM26 The cash is flowing this year at the California gene therapy research program. Read about its $100M platform funding on the California Stem Cell Report. #genetherapy https://t.co/mG5crc7EJZ
Calif is putting up $100 million for gene therapy platform technologies. It is part of what the nation's largest, state-funded cell/gene therapy program, the $12 billion California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, is doing. See this. #JPM2026 https://t.co/eSuWQIhBur

The Golden State answers Trump's vast scientific research cuts with $23 billion proposal to create an enterprise akin to a California version of the NIH. But there is a big catch. https://t.co/IzZs8cAyV3

Despite research funding problems in Washington DC, California is pumping record amounts of cash (more than $500M) into stem cell and gene therapy research. Read about it on the California Stem Cell Report. https://t.co/fwXNXhl8Xx
Value of Golden State's stem cell/gene therapy program was clearly on display earlier this week as turmoil engulfed the national biomedical research world. #genetherapy#stemcells

This evening, I am writing an article about a rare disease funding pitch to the CIRM board supposedly signed by 1,005 people, including you. Did you actually sign the letter? My email is [email protected], which is a better way to communicate.

Calif's stem cell and gene therapy program chalked up its 100th clinical trial this month. The state stem cell agency has popped for nearly $900M in clinical trial support. https://t.co/3U4yZZ6TZX
California just cracked the century mark with its clinical trials for stem cell and gene therapies. Something like nearly $1 billion in funding. Read all about it on the California Stem Cell Report. #stemcells#genetherapy#clinicaltrials https://t.co/3U4yZZ6TZX
@ArunSharmaPhD@CIRMnews For a look at some of what happened that morning, check out this item on the California Stem Cell Report. The agency also gave away $77 million in research-related awards. #stemcells#GeneTherapy https://t.co/phxTUTuuqx
Calif's stem cell and gene therapy program is swamped with applications for tens of millions of dollars for clinical research. Hold on applications proposed. Devastating and damaging, say scientists. #stemcells#genetherapies#cirm https://t.co/Rx2YTeIjzj
