Springtime for Fetal Tissue Research?

We are pleased to inaugurate a new feature to appear three times annually. “ Capital Report ” is designed to keep readers abreast of bioethics debates in Congress, federal agencies, and other branches of the federal government. Tabitha M. Powledge , a former Center associate, brings to the Report her experience as founding editor of The Scientist and as editor of AAAS Observer. Ms. Powledge is currently a contributing editor to Issues in Science and Technology.
