SUMMARY:Stem Cells: Overcoming the Embryo - Professor Austin Smith\, Schoo
 l of Biological Sciences\, University of Cambridge

CONTACT:Dr Nigel Bennee
DESCRIPTION:Stem cell research provokes\, in equal measure\, exaggerated c
 laims of miracle cures and moral outrage over "cannibalism" of human embry
 os.  In reality\, stem cells are basic building blocks of life and objects
  of scientific wonder.  Unlocking their secrets will illuminate our unders
 tanding of fundamental processes in human biology and disease. In this lec
 ture Professor Smith shares with us the current state of knowledge of this
  important field.
