US President, Barack Obama
President Barack Obama Monday lifted his predecessor George W. Bush’s curbs on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, promising a “new frontier” for US science free of political ideology.
From tiny embryonic cells to the large-scale physics of global warming, President Barack Obama urged researchers on Monday to follow science and not ideology as he abolished contentious Bush-era restraints on stem-cell research.
Our government has forced what I believe is a false choice between sound science and moral values,
Obama declared as he signed documents changing U.S. science policy and removing what some researchers have said were shackles on their work.
