MARK YOUR CALENDARS: CARD PARTY PROCEEDS TO BENEFIT HADASSAH STEM CELL RESEARCH Hadassah’s stem cell research program will benefit from money raised at Migdal’s Card Party on Tuesday, October 2. Hadassah is at the forefront of embryonic stem cell research through the pioneering work of the Hadassah Medical Organization and its Goldyne Savad Institute of Gene Therapy. Mature embryonic stem cells can potentially be transplanted to restore tissue function in a range of human diseases associated with loss of cell functions. These conditions may include Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, multiple sclerosis, cerebrovascular accidents, spinal cord injuries, as well as heart failure, diabetes mellitus and more. Doctors at Hadassah are making tremendous strides in their efforts to unravel the mysteries of these threatening diseases. Hadassah’s laboratories have already seen breakthroughs in Parkinson’s disease and early progress in multiple sclerosis and juvenile diabetes. The number of patients that potentially could benefit from transplantation of embryonic stem cells is overwhelming. There are over 16 million patients worldwide with neurodegenerative disorders, and over 120 million diabetic patients. For tickets to the card party and luncheon at Towers on the Green call Edythe Rubenstein at 718- 631-2451.
