The U.S. National Institute of Health is beginning to lag behind the rest of
the world in research using embryonic stem cells, while the Bush
administration performs research about the ethics and legality of harvesting
the cells, in a move that many believe will result in the withholding of
federal funds for the research. Join our Britannica.com debate on the use
of embryonic cells at http://www.delphi.com/br-science. I hope to see you
there. -- Steve
