Dr. Robert Lanza is Featured Guest on Deepak Chopra's SIRIUS XM Stars Radio Show

Advanced Cell Technology's Chief Scientist discusses stem cells and his new
book 'Biocentrism'

WORCESTER, Mass., Aug. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Advanced Cell Technology,
Inc., (OTC: ACTC) announced today that Dr. Robert Lanza, its Chief Scientific
Officer, is featured on Deepak Chopra's Wellness Radio airing Saturday on
Sirius/XM Stars, Channels 102 and 55 [Live Saturday 12 pm - 1 pm ET; Replays 1
pm - 4 am (Sunday) ET, and throughout the week]. The show focuses on Dr.
Lanza's research at ACTC and his new book "Biocentrism." SIRIUS XM Stars
Channel is the flagship satellite talk station featuring unique and diverse
programs, including Deepak Chopra and broadcasting legend Barbara Walters,
among others. It has a listenership of approximately 9 million people.

Chopra is a prolific author of over fifty-five books on topics ranging from
health to consciousness and quantum mechanics, and was heralded by Time
Magazine as one of the top heroes and icons of the century. On his show,
Lanza discusses the cutting edge of regenerative medicine, including ACTC's
efforts to use stem cells to treat blindness, vascular damage, and heart
disease. ACTC hopes to file at least one application with the FDA this year
to begin human clinical trials using retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells to
treat macular degeneration and other retinal degenerative diseases.

Lanza and Chopra also discuss "Biocentrism," and how life and consciousness
are the keys to understanding the true nature of the universe. "We think
life is an accident of physics," explains Lanza. "But a long list of
experiments suggests just the opposite. Amazingly, if you add life to the
equation, you can explain some of the biggest puzzles of science. "

Deepak Chopra stated, "Having interviewed some of the most brilliant minds in
the scientific world, I found Dr. Robert Lanza's insights into the nature of
consciousness original and exciting. His theory of biocentrism is consistent
with the most ancient wisdom traditions of the world which says that
consciousness conceives, governs, and becomes a physical world. It is the
ground of our Being in which both subjective and objective reality come into
existence. I hope to have Dr. Lanza continue this conversation on Sirius XM
satellite radio in the future."

"We believe that Dr. Lanza has contributed significantly to the understanding
of the key role stem cells play in the field of regenerative medicine," said
William M. Caldwell IV, Chairman and CEO of ACTC. "Through his scientific
leadership the field is on the verge of therapeutically validating a new
platform for regenerative medicine."
