Summary:
Scientists reported the creation of a stem cell line from a human embryo that had stopped developing naturally, and so was considered dead. Using such embryos might ease ethical concerns about creating such cells, they suggested.
Commentary: Hopefully this will ease ethical concerns surrounding embryonic stem cell research and enable it to proceed rapidly in order to develop effective treatments for diseases, injuries and medical conditions.
