NIH Funds and Stem Cell Research
Dec. 22nd, 2006 04:57 pmI thought I had posted this when I first saw it, apparently I did not.
"A favorite argument as to why the federal government should not fund embryonic stem cell research is that the science is unproven. It has not led to any cures or FDA-approved treatments.
That happens to be true. But that doesn't make it a good argument. In fact, most of the science funded by the federal government is not successful yet, since proven science doesn't usually need funding."
