An Alternative to Cloning URL: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/sciencenow/3209/04-alternative.html Description: "Media reports generally mention only two ways to produce human embryonic stem cells. ... In this conversation with Ann Kiessling of Harvard Medical School, NOVA scienceNOW's Kyla Dunn learns about a third and possibly less contentious approach. It has the tongue-twisting name 'parthenogenesis' [when an egg activates spontaneously on its own]." Also includes a discussion of the controversy about research on this topic.
