Let me see.....
vaccines against rapidly changing bugs such as influenza,
predicting the behaviour of microorganisms in epidemics,
developing strategies to counter antimicrobial resistance,
developing new drugs by following the changes in genes of otherwise unknown function....
... oh, sorry, you said CREATION science. I'll get back to you if I find any....
[Edit, 8 hours later] .... Nope, although I'm still searching for Tylenol, vaccines, antibiotics, etc ... in Genesis. Have to say, scientifically speaking, it's slim pickin's!

I don't know about medical breakthroughs, but a prediction that can be made using Creation Science is that whenever an article is written about evolutionary science, a creationist will run around posting links to it claiming that evolution is a dying theory without actually reading the article.

Absolutely none. "Creation Science" (oxymoron) is a dishonest way of trying to detract from evolution. These creation scientists don't do any real science, all they do is lie, quote mine, and use other deceitful ways to cast public doubt about one of the most well-supported scientific theories that exist

None. Creationism is not a science, and is incapable of discovering anything.

Well, there was, uh, errrr . . .
And then there was . . .
I'm still waiting for a vaccine against the virus "kind". If they could come up with a single vaccine that was effective against any virus at any time I'd be willing to admit that there was something to their hypothesis of there being irreducibly complex mechanisms (because I assume their vaccine would knock out an essential mechanism all virii need).

Creation science deals with the origin of the universe, not about medicine.

i must admit, pusher has a point. not that i believe in creation, but as it applies to your question, he gave a good answer. if a god had created everything, then yes, we use the plants and trees he/she/it/they created for medicines, and even use animals, such as snakes for creating anti venom.
geez, i should wake up a little before coming to R&S, here i am agreeing with fundie creationists - sorry about that balaam

Add cures from adult stem cell research to your list.
You can also add aspirin, tylenol, plaster casts for broken bones, antibiotics, vaccines against influenza, measles, small pox, etc.
Good old fashioned bed rest (On the seventh day, what did God do?)
Every single medical breakthrough we have is due to "Creation Science"-what was there!
We take medicines from the plants and trees in the grounds, etc.

Absolutly nothing, yet people always claim god answers prayers and heels people.
Have an amputee wake up with 4 healthy, functioning limbs, wihtout ever going to the hospital...then maybe there is a god who cares.

I know one! Creation science proved to me that fundamentalists can cause a chronic pain in the a**.
