These public forums are designed to engage Albertans in a patient-focused dialogue to demystify stem cell therapies. The forums have been designed to resolve three objectives:

1) to increase public and patient awareness of stem cell therapies,  its implications on health care delivery and their potential in preventing and treating degenerative diseases,
2) to establish Alberta's bio-tech sector as a world leader in the development of stem cell technologies, and,
3) to prepare Alberta for the early delivery of stem cell therapy.
