A member asked:
Can stem cell research have the potential to cure illnesses like autism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anything's possible: But there is no indication or basis thus far that stem cells are likely to have an impact on autism. There are however interventions that can favorably impact autism, and ongoing research in a number of areas is likely to result in further ways to treat and/or prevent autism.
