Not surprisingly, there’s been a lot of interesting chatter about the recently announced stem cell research results I blogged about earlier. I did a longer blog post over on Correlations that might interest you (I managed to think of the pun for the title that I knew was in there somewhere, but could not manage it this morning over here). (Right: an image from the Wisconsin-Madison group. These are human skin cells.)
Mentioned there are two more NPR items I thought were of note:
- One is another conversation, this time with two commentators on the “ethical” implications (Sean Tipton, president of the Coalition for the Advancement of Medical Research, and Richard Doerflinger, deputy director of Pro-Life Activities for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops), which took place on All Things Considered, and you can listen to it here.
- Also, NPR’s website has an excellent time-line of the debate about stem cell research over the recent years, from a USA perspective. It is rather interesting to look at, and it is here.
