the patient\u2019s blood, and performs highly sensitive procedures to convert those stem cells into mature cells and tissues.<br>&nbsp;<br>The CRMC gives clinicians at BC Children\u2019s Hospital the tools to better understand the genetic cause of conditions like heart arrhythmias, so they can provide the best possible care to children in B.C. The goal is for improved diagnoses, identification of optimal treatments, and potentially, cures, improving and saving the lives of children across the province and beyond.<br>&nbsp;<br>The CRMC is also enabling diabetes researchers to generate and study insulin-producing beta cells. In the future, the centre may help to provide answers for the thousands of children living with other life-altering conditions, such as cancer, bowel disease and epilepsy.&nbsp;<\/p><p
