Adult Stem Cells

Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2010

"Stem cells from adult skin are as morally fraught as embryonic stem cells," argues Center Fellow Sally Lehrman in a recent article for Scientific American. Besides "futuristic-sounding possibilities such as creating gametes for reproduction," Lehrman explores the rights of tissue donors. 

Lehrman is the Knight Ridder/San Jose Mercury News Endowed Chair for Journalism in the Public Interest at Santa Clara University.
