In a letter dated 19/11/2018, this charity wrote: ‘…the research undertaken at Anthony Nolan does not use, or perform, any experimental work on human embryos. We are fortunate to be able to work with stem cells from voluntary unrelated donors and from cord blood stem cells collected from the placenta following birth. Of course, this research is performed only following rigorous review and approval both internally and externally, and with the appropriately signed consent of the donor. Anthony Nolan does not provide funds or grants to other organisations for its research.’
