Stomach stem cells

So many places to get stem cells from;
1.  brain biopsies 
2.  Blood
3.  Bone marrow stem cells
4.  Skin cells 
5.  Re-programme other cells to become nerve cells, directly in the brain. 
6.  UK scientists use 3D printer to print human stem cells
7.  Reprogramming Adult Schwann Cells to Stem Cell-like Cells by Leprosy Bacilli Promotes Dissemination of Infection
8.  Fat cells 
9.  Urine 
10.  Bone marrow
11.  Placenta
12.  Umbilical cord blood
13.  hair follicles
14.  menstrual blood
15.   liver cells
16.  Dental pulp
17.  Stem Cell Scaffolding
18.  Converting fibroblasts into functional neurons 
19.  Cells grown from the lining of their nose.

And now the stomach;
Blogger report here:
Stomach cells turn into stem cells more often than we thought
Abstract here;
Differentiated Troy+ Chief Cells Act as Reserve Stem Cells to Generate All Lineages of the Stomach Epithelium

Who is going to figure out the best location that can create neurons for  the brain? A great stroke association would sponsor such research and foundations would jump to put their name and funding behind that.
