Research!America responded to the news of Kennedy's death with a statement from our board chair and president: Research!America's chair, former Illinois Congressman John Edward Porter, said, "It is impossible to convey the enormity of the loss of Senator Ted Kennedy, for all Americans and certainly for those who share his deep commitment to advancing medical research. His courageous support of the National Institutes of Health and other federal research agencies, of embryonic stem cell research and mental health research has advanced the range and quality of preventions, treatments and cures available to Americans today. His commitment to affordable health care for all Americans is a battle he waged ever since he first came to the Senate."
