Stem Cell Symphony: A Novel
by Ricki Lewis PhD
A hospice volunteer shares iPod music with a young man with a devastating
neurological disease - and he improves. Could the songs be activating stem cells
in his brain?
The underlying love story and comical cast of characters propel this parallel
tale of emerging spirituality and an evolving medical technology. Many of the
characters and scenes are based on real people, and the science dead-on accurate
- with the one tweak of the music turning on stem cells.
It could happen.
