Stem cell science is one of the most promising areas in science today. It may also be the most controversial. The University of Michigan has created a new center for stem cell research, despite the fact that the state has one of the strictest laws limiting what can be done. What is the future of stem cell research in Michigan? Where should the boundary be between exploration and ethics?
Jack talks with State Representative Andrew Meisner; Sean Morrison, the director of the University of Michigan Center for Stem Cell Biology; and Howard Brody, Professor of Ethics at Michigan State University.
Certainly enjoy your show and so happy to be priviledged to hear you

Jack,
I am very interested in having your commentary from the show where you shared the story of one of your heroes. I've forgotten his name. He was a doctor from the 1800s, as I recall. He invented 'hand washing' as a means of stopping the spread of disease..and was widely mocked by his physician contemporaries. What was his name? Can you please forward your commentary from that show? I think it was from the Oct 6 stem cell research discussion. Thanks.
Leslie
