>"Witchhunt" for conservative bioethicists and biotechnologists?
>I wouldn’t be surprised. Michael Fumento, the author of one of the huge books on my shelves, Bioevolution, lost his job writing a column for the Scripps Howard News Service, due to accusations that he is “bought.” It seems that 5 years ago, he accepted grant money in order to write that book.

Discrimination
The New York Times published an interview with Douglas Melton, the Harvard researcher who is creating stem cell lines that are outside the guidelines for eligibility for Federal funds. He’s not sure how many cell lines there are that come under those guidelines, and he’s really fuzzy about when life begins, but he wants our … Continue reading

Up to date dueling ethicists on cloning, stem cells, and embryos

Hair follicles, ethical neural stem cells, and a couple of silly tangents
Encouraging news about nerve stem cells found in the hair follicles in this abstract. I would like to say that this is one of the clearest, best written abstracts that I’ve seen. Usually, the statistics, jargon and incredibly convoluted writing makes abstracts difficult to read or less informative than I’d like. This abstract tells us … Continue reading
