phil,

in a recent post from Joan E. Blessington Snyder she wrote about a conference she sponsored in peoria.   quoted from joan - "On Sunday, PLWP presented a wonderfully informative symposium,  Patients As Providers.  Eighty-five people with PD came to this forum and were able to participate in the spirited  conversation that followed talks by Dr. Phillip Jobe, Dr. Rick Weber & Dr. Jai Cumar."

i attended that meeting.  i believe it was dr. webber who said that it takes many embryonic stem cells to help one person.  maybe i misunderstood.
