COVID-19 UPDATE
As our daily norms continue to change due to the COVID-19 virus the overall messaging that we must all do our part to keep ourselves and each other safe remains the same. Only essential businesses are permitted to remain open. Similar to a hospital, grocery store, or pharmacy, donating blood is essential to ensure the health of our communities.
The work we do here at StemExpress is considered essential and therefore we will remain open at all of our locations throughout the United States.

Dustin is passionate about research. Here’s why.
Why is Research Important to You?
Since I’ve been diabetic for nearly 27 years, I am a big supporter of stem cell research. I’ve seen a lot of advances in science in regards to diabetes ever since I got it when I was 14.
I know what it is like firsthand to live with something that I didn’t ask for. There are some days when I have to force myself to go out and do things, I mean I got a 6-year-old son I have to take care of. I got to go to work. I got to do normal life things every day, and it can be hard a lot of times with diabetes.
