Embryonic Stem Cell Research



What are the facts about adult vs. embryonic stem cells? Three years ago California passed a $3 billion bond initiative for stem cell research. But stem-cell research was already legal and funded in California. What was the difference? Cloning. Where does the research stand today? That's what we talked about on Wednesday's show with Jennifer Lahl, Director of The Center for Bioethics and Culture.

Here are some links on the subject that you can find at our Issues Library.
