Stem Cell Research Compliance
Human stem cell research at SIUC, regardless of funding source, must be approved by the Stem Cell Research Oversight (SCRO) Committee before the research can begin. Review by the SCRO Committee does not supplant review by other relevant review committees; see the policy and procedures linked below. The committee has final approval over stem cell projects.
