Stem Cells Made From 'Dead' Human Embryo
678757
By MALCOLM RITTER  NEW YORK - Scientists say they have created a stem cell line from a human embryo that had stopped developing naturally, and so was considered dead. Using such embryos might ease ethical concerns about creating such cells, they suggested.
