Madison, Wis. – The University of Wisconsin-Madison professor who has been called the â??father of stem cell researchâ? has reportedly agreed to operate a research lab as an adjunct professor at the University of California-Santa Barbara.

The Santa Barbara Independent is reporting that Thomson, who remains a tenured faculty member at UW-Madison, will be in Santa Barbara about one month out of the year and lead an interdisciplinary team of four postdoctoral researchers.
