Roll Call Vote on the Thomas Plan Dealing with IOM Recommendations

Posted on by

Here is the roll call vote yesterday on the plan to deal with the findings of the Institute of Medicine
concerning the California stem cell agency. The vote was 23-0 with
one abstention. The board has 29 seats. Not all board members were in attendance,
and it is not entirely clear whether all the board members in attendance
voted. Among other things, the plan calls for members with links to
institutions that could benefit from CIRM awards to voluntarily refrain from
voting on any applications for funding – not just those to their
institutions. The roll call was provided by a spokesman for the
agency.

(Editor's note: Based on information provided by CIRM, an earlier version of this item incorrectly reported that the vote was 21-0. It also contained errors on three names. All have been corrected. Thanks for the heads up on the misspellings from a board member who will remain unnamed.)
