Mooney, an author on the study. “Secondly, it would be a tremendous benefit to patients because it would be more widely available, and less expensive.” But before the therapy can reach that stage, it must undergo human clinical trials that require approval from the Food and Drug Administration, which Ali said he hopes to obtain soon. “We’re developing more of the preclinical data that we need to support a clinical trial,” Ali said. “All the components...

Religious objections to medical treatment have historical roots that can be traced back to the late 1800s in England, when a sect called the Peculiar People ended up on trial for allowing generations of children to die as a result of their decision to reject doctors and medicine. Today, many religious groups routinely reject some or all mainstream health care on theological grounds, including Christian Scientists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Amish and Scientologists. "Fundamentalists tell us their lives are in the hands of God and we, as physicians, are not God," says Dr. Lorry Frankel, a professor at the Stanford School...
