People hoping for stem cell progress disappointed lately

I've been away from a computer for nearly three weeks--with two limited chances to check e-mail--and am trying to catch up on the news in stem cell research. Along with many others interested in the field, I am disappointed to see that many of the alerts relate to questions about Hwang's research in Korea and not to progress in treating diseases. I guess this is really not surprising, considering the media hype generated from announcements in the past 6 months or so. I'll scan everything hoping to find some reports of progress and bring them to you.
