I worked with F9 ES cells as early as 1978, and I've followed stem cell work closely ever since. At the very top of this article, there is a diagram that says "in theory".

Just a FYI for anyone that might want to avoid an "ENMD" tomorrow morning.

Tom Okarma, for those who don't know it, is one of biotech's proven managers, having steered AIS to health through the sector's toughest funding period and to eventual purchase by Rhone Poulenc.

The human stem cell is big stuff, but...... to take some of the Star Wars touch off of this.... people have been observing erythrocyte formation and muscle cell differentiation in ES cultures for well over 20 years.
