Stem cell research is an exciting field with great potential for people with autoimmune disease. When we see the headlines, it’s easy to believe a cure is already here, especially since some commercial clinics promise that. In today's podcast, we separate the hope from the hype.

My guest is Dr. Jeffrey Cohen, a physician and stem cell researcher who specializes in multiple sclerosis.
