The UK's House of Commons has just voted to amend the 1990 Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act so that early-stage embryos can also be used for research into non-congenital diseases - allowing investigation into therapeutic cloning. There's a BBC news online article at http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_1078000/1078639.stm The SPRING web site is also a good place for further information http://spring.parkinsons.org.uk/donaldson/ Many thanks to all of those that helped make this important event happen.
