research allied to embryo cloning raise the fears of others by speaking of stem cell research as leading directly to designer babies. Those who place their hope in future therapies hoped for from these avenues of research speak about the target

in every somatic cell. The cloning experiments at the Roslin Institute have given us the technology of quiescence for returning an already differentiated somatic nucleus to its pre-differentiated state and, hence, pluripotency. Only the third
