The Center for Genetics and Society has launched a BioPolicyWiki with several entries related to stem-cell research, including obtaining human eggs for research and creating embryonic stem cells through nuclear transfer (research cloning). The Center opposes both practices, but clicking around I felt that the team that put it together had made a sincere effort to acknowledge both sides.

Meanwhile, FoxNews describes stem-cell researchers apprehension over Presidential candidate McCain’s positions, while WiredNews considers that his proposal for a very restrictive policy is, for the most part, mere pandering to the conservatives.
