Biotechnology Thought-Leader David Perryman Presents at Acclaimed TED2007 Conference.Stem Cell stem cell In living organisms, an undifferentiated cell that can produce other cells that eventually make up specialized tissues and organs. There are two major types of stem cells, embryonic and adult. Innovations' Counsel to Discuss Innovative PluriCell[TM] Technology HOUSTON -- Stem Cell Innovations, Inc. (OTCB: SCLL SCLL Sandia Corporation, Livermore Laboratory ) today announced that David G. Perryman, J.D., noted author and lecturer on biotechnology, founder and intellectual property counsel to Stem Cell Innovations (SCI (Scalable Coherent Interface) An IEEE standard for a high-speed bus that uses wire or fiber-optic cable. It can transfer data up to 1GBytes/sec. (hardware) SCI - 1. Scalable Coherent Interface. 2. UART. ) presents a short talk at TED2007, a four day gathering that provides a forum for extraordinary individuals from science, technology, business, and the arts. Mr. Perryman will discuss SCI's PluriCell[TM] programs and how that technology will shape the future of biotechnology research. The meeting will be held March 7-10 at the Monterey Conference Center in Monterey, California For other uses, see Monterey (disambiguation). The City of Monterey is located on Monterey Bay along the Pacific coast in central California. As of 2005, the city population was 30,641. . SCI's core technology focuses on developing, growing, and manipulating human cells in the laboratory using proprietary technology. By growing pure cultures of individual cell types, SCI is developing a broad array of human primary cell models as powerful research tools that can form the basis of therapeutic breakthroughs. SCI has established several human pluripotent stem cell pluripotent stem cell Hematology The 'mother of all cells'–the progenitor of all hematopoietic cells–eg, platelets, RBCs, neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes.

These PluriCell([TM]) lines have been established directly onto tissue culture plastic without the use of feeder layers or conditioned medium. In addition to the PluriCell technology SCI has already established in vitro in vitro /in vi·tro/ (in ve´tro) [L.] within a glass; observable in a test tube; in an artificial environment. in vi·tro adj.

"We congratulate David on being recognized for his continuing contribution to the biotechnology industry," said James H. Kelly, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of SCI. "David has been a major presence in biotechnology for over 20 years and his insights into our technology, including the PluriCell[TM] lines will undoubtedly be a highlight of the TED 2007, 'Icons, Geniuses and Mavericks.' meeting."

Stem Cell Innovation (SCI) is a cell biology company with offices in Scotch Plains, NJ, and facilities in Houston, TX, and Leiden, the Netherlands. SCI's proprietary, human pluripotent stem cells, known as PluriCells, have the potential to aid in drug discovery, toxicology, and cell therapy. The company is in the process of making its patented pluripotent plu·rip·o·tent or plu·ri·po·ten·tial adj. 1. Capable of affecting more than one organ or tissue. 2. Not fixed as to potential development. Used of an embryonic cell. cell lines, which are eligible for federal funding in the U.S., widely available to universities and other not-for-profit institutions to rapidly advance stem cell research. Stem Cell Innovations is positioned to become a leading provider of toxicology testing and discovery systems for the pharmaceutical, chemical, and nutraceutical industries around the world.

Forward-Looking statements are not statements of historical facts, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future events and results. We use words such as "expects", "intends", "believes", "may", "will" and "anticipates" to indicate forward-looking statements.
