CIRM Urged to Reorganize
加州再生医学研究所被迫改组

The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) has provided a creative new source of funding that has turned the state into an international hub of stem cell research, but the agency could do a lot more to rid itself of possible conflicts of interest and other organizational problems. That was thetake-home message last week from an Institute of Medicine (IOM) panel that CIRM had commissioned to review its operations. The stem cell agency was created by a 2004 ballot initiative that raised $3 billion for research through bond sales.

加州再生医学研究所（CIRM）创造性的提供了一种新的资金源，使得加州成为一个世界级干的细胞研究中心。然而，CIRM可能会有更多的举措来避免潜在的利益冲突和其它人事组织方面的问题。这是上周医学研究所（IOM）根据CIRM的情况告诉我们的，该医学研究所（IOM）受CRIM委托已经开始审查他们的运营情况。2004年，通过投票表决发起的债券发行筹集了30亿美元的研究经费，这个干细胞研究机构因此而创建。

One sore point among CIRM critics is that many members of its 29-member governing board represent institutions that have received CIRM grants. The IOM panel recommended that board members be excluded from grant review committees, and it suggested curtailing the board’s role in CIRM’s daily operations. It also recommended diversifying the board with more independent voices and more industry representatives, whose help will be needed to achieve CIRM’s stated goal of developing stem cell treatments. The panel also urged CIRM to formulate a plan to ensure financial sustainability after spending its initial funding.

另外一个对CRIM批评的焦点是很多来自于29个政府董事会成员的研究机构受到了CIRM的资助。IOM委员会建议董事会成员不应该做基金审核人，而且应该弱化董事会在CRIM日常运营中的作用。IOM还建议增加独立董事的发言权和更多的工业界代表以提升董事会的多样化，他们的帮助对于实现CIRM所宣称的发展干细胞治疗的目标是非常必要的。另外，委员会还督促CIRM能提出一个计划来确保当花完启动资金后财政支持的持续性。
