Bob Bob and others, Both the Parkinson's Action Network (PAN) and the Parkinson's Disease Foundation (PDF) are members of CAMR- the Coalition for the advancement of Medical Research - which is a very active umbrella organization of more than 70 disease advocacy, medical and scientific organizations, universities and research centers that support therapeutic cloning and stem cell research. Elisabeth Bresee Brittin and John Rogers of PAN are on the CAMR Board of Directors. As an individual you can help - See the CAMR website at: http://www.camradvocacy.org for lots of information and for easy ways to write to your Senators and Representatives to support SCNT, and also to send letters to your local media. As a group we can also encourage our other Parkinson's organizations to add their support and to speak with one united, strong voice - in support of SCNT research for Parkinson's and other chronic and deadly diseases. - in support of legislation that allows medical research utilizing therapeutic cloning to continue and to receive federal funding AND - in opposition to any legislation seeking to criminalize therapeutic cloning for researchers or patients. Again see the CAMR and PAN (www.parkinsonsaction.org) websites for more information on current legislation.
