In June 2005, Hwang and coworkers at Seoul National University1 reported that pluripotent human embryonic stem cells can efficiently be generated by nuclear transfer from a wide variety of patients (Figure 1). The authors transferred somatic-cell nuclei from eight male and three female donors, 2 to 56 years of age, into oocytes whose nuclear genomes had been removed. To underscore . . .
