Aurora, IL — July 27, 2009 ﾖ As scientists delve deeper into the study of human biology, science itself becomes more personal, as do issues of bioethics and the moral responsibility of science. On Thursday, August 13, the Total Living Network (TLN Comcast Digital Basic Cable Channel 138) will host a forum discussing bioethics issues and how science can find new cures while respecting individual humanity. The National Forum on Stem Cell Research will address the dramatic effects of Adult Stem Cell Transplants and address issues and questions regarding Embryonic Stem Cell Research with a distinguished panel of experts.

Following a documentary screening, panelists will discuss the moral responsibilities of science in a live taped forum before a studio audience.

Kessler, Professor of Stem Cell Biology and Chairman, Department of Neurology, Northwestern University’s Davee Department of Neurology, Dr. Richard K.
