TY - JOUR T1 - SHerley v sebelius and the future of stem cell research AU - Cohen I, Feigenbaum J, Adashi EY Y1 - 2012/11/28 N1 - 10.1001/jama.2012.36633 JO - JAMA SP - 2087 EP - 2088 VL - 308 IS - 20 N2 - It has now been close to 15 years since the derivation of the first human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line.1 However, the legal, legislative, and political strife over the federal funding of hESC research continues unabated. The stakes are considerable because early translational efforts have entered the clinical trial arena.2 In this Viewpoint we trace the resolution of the latest legal challenge to the federal funding of hESC research and reflect on the future course of this important debate.
