Let's make this easy. Well, easily accessible. Not necessarily easy reading.
When you finish pulling your hair out trying to wrap your head around exactly what it is that Thomas Ichim, et al have been doing for many a year, be sure to read on for a wee breakdown of the challenges stem cell research has faced just from an ethical standpoint.
Then mosey on over to the next link that will provide you many links to various state laws/regulations on fetal stem cell research (appears as those has been a while since an update but I assure you you will be well educated by each link).
Then, when you're finished there, click the last link for a view of what the busy folk at wiki put together for us with respect to the SCREA.
But you'll have to go all the way back now to the origins of opposition to really understand what scientists have faced. Nothing is ever as cut and dry as you have attempted to make it seem.
When you've finished with the above, let's then discuss siRNA.
Happy reading!
