* The new Democratic Congress prepared to vote on a bill to fund stem-cell research that kills human embryos. But science may be mooting the debate. According to the advocates of funding, embryonic stem cells have more promise than adult stem cells because they are "pluripotent": They can become any number of other types of cells. But it is becoming increasingly clear that pluripotent stem cells can be derived without killing human embryos. One area of research involves ...
