For the first time since the linkurl: National Institutes of
Health; http://www.nih.gov/ released its new guidelines for the derivation of human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines last summer, a line approved under the Bush administration has been recommended for inclusion into the growing
federal registry of lines eligible for
federal funding.
During and since this time, I attended ministry - sponsored workshops, presented before and submitted comments to the standing committee and the EBR
registry on the Green Energy Act, attended meetings at government level, submitted information to provincial and
federal health officials, to the senate, to the Premier to the Prime Minister, and so on.
