I can think of no ethical reason to apply this technique to human beings, if in fact it can be applied," he said Sunday. The biotechnology industry exists to use genetic information to cure disease and improve agriculture." feldbaum said. "W? opposed human cloning when it was a theory. Now mat it may be possible, we urge that k be prohibited by law." A report of the sheep doning will be published in Thursday's issue of the journal Nafm by WUmut and colleagues at the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh. Scotland, and others. Before the new work, scientists had been able to take tissue from adult frogs and create jenetkalty identical tadpoles. But the tadpoles never developed fully into frogs. lb do the sheep cloning, scientists took cells from the ewe's udder tissue and cultivated them in a lab, using a treatment that made the cells essentially dormant. They also took unfertilized sheep eggs and removed the nucleus, the cells' central control room that contains the genes. Then they put the udder cells together with the egg cells and used an electric current to make them fuse. The eggs, each now equipped w ith a nucleus, grew into embryos as if they had been fertilized. The embryos were put into ewes to Brighton Ski Resort ,. a.

Candidates for the award must submit portfolios that include letters of recommendation from students, deans and chairs. A fair amount of work often goes instructors throughout the year. One of the most recent and prestigious awards is the Presidential Scholar Award, which Teaching President Arthur K. Smith began in 1992. Over 2.500 people, according to the U.'s Research and Teaching Committee, contribute to the U.'s teaching mission While it may be difficult to recognize all of diem, there are ways to reward some of them-beyo- nd paying for and passing their courses.

The process was horrendously inefficient Of 277 fused eggs, only one led to a lamb. Wilmut said he expects the efficiency to improve. Someday a dairy farmer, for example, might make a few clones of cows who are especially good at producing milk, resisting disease and reproducing, he said. t . A farmer wouldn't want entire herds of identical animals, because populations need a diverse genetic makeup, he said Without that diversity, a lethal disease that struck one cow could wipe out all the clones, too. , The advance will aho provide a much more efficient way to insert genes into livestock. Wilmut and others said. Inserted genes can be used to make animals secrete valuable drugs in their milk, for example. Scientists currently insert genes into fertilized eggs in a laboratory, which is a very inefficient way to produce animals who use the genes properly. With the new technique, they could start with a virtually unlimited supply of body cells from an adult animal use a much more effective lab technique to insert genes, identify cells that use the germ as planned and fuse them to eggs. -- |
