Battey To Stay at NIH

The NIH stem cell chief has confirmed that he has withdrawn his name from consideration as the new president of the California stem cell agency.

In response to a query from this blog, James Battey said in an email: "I believe serving as President, CIRM, is an exciting and important way to further the progress of regenerative medicine. However, I plan to continue as Director, National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, which is also an important opportunity to further the progress of biomedical research in the normal and disordered processes of hearing,balance, smell, taste, voice, speech, and language."
