Over at the University of Michigan is a
nice little flash presentation on embryonic stem cells. My friend Brad who is a scientist in this field is talking about this stuff all the time and I typically don't know what he is talking about.
So it was a great reward to me to find such an easy to understand source covering the qualities of the different types of stem cells.
As a bonus, I wonder how much controversy could have been avoided if researchers and scientists would have consistently referred to the cells as Creo-B-Plastiocysts or some such.
Obviously alot of people get caught up in the emotional ties with the word "embryo".
