What’s the biggest stem cell story of the year so far?
I did a poll asking just that and the result so far overwhelmingly indicate that respondents believe the STAP cell scandal to be the top stem cell story of 2014 about half way through the year.
You can see the results from the 210+ respondents so far above.
In 2nd place is SCNT-based human therapeutic cloning followed by young blood reversing aging.
STAP obviously grabbed the most headlines thus far, but in the grand trajectory of where the field of regenerative medicine is going, it’s really just a minor footnote.
