Here is the best part. VODG still “expects” to be the "first" company in the world to commercialize these Islets/ stem cell line products for use in drug development & discovery, 2) develop and commercialize products to treat animal diabetes and 3) develop and commercialize a stem cell-based treatment of human diabetes .

They appear rapidly moving towards that goal. A manufacturing facility is been being built to suit since September and is expected to be done by spring
