Ashley Thomson is a 28-year-old Auckland man who became tetraplegic in 2000. He is currently in Delhi receiving injections of embryonic stem cells to try and cure his paralysis and allow him to walk again; associate professor Bronwen Connor, a stem cell research scientist, at Auckland University; and Rein Terpstra. Rein's wife Willie Terpstra sought experimental cell treatment for her motor neurone disease in 2006, in China. While she achieved some temporary relief from her symptoms, they returned and she died later that year.

Future Broadcasts
10 September
Best-selling British crime writer Simon Kernick has been described as "Britain's most exciting new thriller writer". His debut novel was The Business of Dying (2002), and his ninth and latest thriller, The Last 10 Seconds, came out in August.
His books centre on the murky underbelly of London, a world of drug lords, hit men, bent cops, pimps and prostitutes.
He draws both on his own personal experiences and does extensive research, speaking with members of the UK's anti crime organisations such as the Special Branch, the Anti-Terrorist Branch and the Serious and Organised Crime Agency.
Kernick is visiting New Zealand as part of the Christchurch Writer's Festival.
