ACTC news out.. It is on Etrade .. Chart is sweet too.

WASHINGTON (AFP)--Human embryonic stem cells were set to be tested as a treatment for blindness, a U.S. company announced Monday in the
second such clinical trial to examine how the controversial process works in people. Just 12 adult patients were set to take part in the trial to determine how the
treatment using retinal cells, derived from human embryonic stem cells, affects patients with a common form of vision loss that takes hold in children as young as six. The
process has been tested on rats and mice, and has been found to halt the progressive disease without causing tumors or other side effects, said chief scientific officer
Bob Lanza at the biotech company Advanced Cell Technology Inc. (ACTC).
