No sooner did we comment on the great news about stem cells from amniotic fluid than the lead researcher in that effort, Dr. Anthony Atala told members of Congress that he is all for the most funding possible for human embryonic stem cell research
Too bad Congress isn't listening to the profound words of MIT's stem cell scientist James Sherley, who said, “Whether or not the embryo has yet developed spinal nerves or self-awareness is an irrelevant point made to distract and confuse. I challenge the promoters of human embryonic stem cell research to justify why another human embryonic life is less worthy than their own was.”
