Summary:
Reuters reports researchers have eliminated the cancer risk associated with the recently-reported advance of creating stem cells from skin cells, but that the process is less efficient:
"Researchers who figured out how to make valued embryonic stem cells out of ordinary skin cells said on Friday they had found a way to cut one cancer-causing ingredient out of the mix. But it came at a price -- the method may be safer, but it is also less efficient."
