SAN FRANCISCO<\/b> – A move to tighten
budget controls on grants from the $3 billion California stem cell
agency stalled Monday, but it appears that the plan is headed for
ultimate approval.<\/p>

<\/div>
The proposal <\/a>was up for consideration
by the agency's directors' Science Subcommittee<\/b>, which could not act
on it after it lost its quorum.<\/div>
<\/div>
Members of the panel generally favored
the stronger budget controls, but had questions about the specifics
of implementing the plan during closed-door reviews of grant
applications. The proposal is likely to be altered to respond to
those concerns. It would then either come back to the Science
Subcommittee or go to the full board.<\/div>
<\/div>
The plan would make it clear to
recipients of large grants that approval of an application by the
agency's governing board does not provide a carte blanche to
researchers. Ellen Feigal<\/b>, senior vice president for research and
development, said it can be “extremely difficult” for CIRM<\/b> staff
to deal with budget problems in grants following board approval.<\/div>
<\/div>
The committee also approved a plan to
speed the application process on its next disease team round, which
is aimed at driving research into the clinic. The concept proposal
for that round is scheduled to come before directors later this
month. The round will be limited to “more mature stage” research
that is close to a clinical trial, if not in one. Feigal said 10 to
15 applications are expected.<\/div>
<\/div>
Another proposal to add more millions
to CIRM's strategic partnership program was also approved.<\/div>
