Over the next six episodes, we're proud to present 'Lost Cells', a short investigative podcast series. The production is an original SWI swissinfo.ch trilingual podcast made in collaboration with Piz Gloria Productions, Futur Proche and Studio Ochenta. 

This gripping investigative podcast series uncovers the human stories behind the promises and failures of private stem cell banking in Switzerland.

In episode one, Luis Daniel suffers from a rare type of blood cancer. Could promising stem cell research, and a baby be the chance he’s been looking for?

SWI swissinfo.ch is a public service media company based in Bern, Switzerland.
