In proving the existence of stem cells, Ernest Armstrong McCullochand James Edgar Till formed the most important partnership in Canadian medicalresearch since Frederick Banting and Charles Best, the discoverers of insulin. Together,Till and McCulloch instructed, influenced, and inspired successive generationsof researchers who have used their findings to make huge advances againstdisease. Thousands of people who would have died from leukemia and immunologicaldisorders now owe their lives to therapies developed from their discoveries.Despite their accomplishments, Till and McCulloch remain largelyunknown, and until now, their story has remained untold. Dreams and DueDiligence vividly chronicles the work of two researchers who made medicalhistory – two men who possessed exactly the right complementary talents toachieve greatness and win nearly every award available in medical research. Bringingtheir legacy to life for the first time, Joe Sornberger provides a dramaticaccount of the development of stem cell research, one of today’s most ground-breakingmedical scientific fields.
