SAN FRANCISCOâ€"California's $3 billion stem cell agency named Australian scientist Alan Trounson as its new president on Friday.
The 3-year-old California Institute of Regenerative Medicine, based in San Francisco, has been searching for a science chief since its first president, Zach Hall, retired at the end of April.

Twenty members of the 29-person committee that oversees the agency were in attendance at Friday's monthly meeting in Los Angeles. All 20 voted for Trounson's appointment, instantly propelling him to the forefront of stem cell research.
