Hi Gareth,

The Royal Women's Hospital in Melbourne Australia is undertaking studies with a wide view of areas where stem cell research is/may be of help. I'm not affiliated with the Women's Hospital but our second son was recently born there and we were asked whether we wanted to donate our placental cord for the use of stem cell research. The Bone Marrow Donor Institute attached to the hospital and would be your best chance of finding out exactly what work is being done and if this helps you.

URL is rwh.org.au I think?

Hope I've helped,

Graeme.
Medical Ed, etc..
