Embryonic Stem Cells from Patient's Own Adult Stem Cells
Well, they did it! From Reuter’s, UK: WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Two separate teams of researchers announced on Tuesday they had transformed ordinary skin cells into batches of cells that look and act like embryonic stem cells — but without using cloning technology and without making embryos. Their breakthroughs could make possible the long-sought goal of … Continue reading
