Definition

  • OHIO CARRIES A surprising history of stem cell and regenerative medicine research. Since 1980, it has managed to reconcile with its conservative nature by limiting research to nonembryonic cell lines, though current state legislation closely follows the views of President George W. Bush and forbids the use of embryonic or cadaveric fetal tissue for experimentation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Stem Cell Research; Ohio]
