Where do scientists obtain adult stem cells?<br> saliva<br> pancreas<br> skin<br> bone marrow
Alex17521 [72]
<span> Embryonic stem cell research is kind of a dead area now since there is no way to control the differentiation. Most research is being done on adult stem cells to help map and control the differentiation process.

You could do a much easier report by covering cloning of mice through stem-cell technology. It is happening and helping scientists understand diseases. </span>
