Dominique Lecourt appointed chairman of the Professional Conduct and Ethics Advisory Committee of the Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD)
Dominique Lecourt has held office in many responsible capacities in education and research in his field, the philosophy of science. He was commissioned in 1999 by the Minister for Education Claude Alle'gre with the task of incorporating this discipline in all higher scientific and medical curricula and in the Grandes Ecoles. He has taught in... view more... (2002-05-14)

Therapeutic cloning gets a boost with new research findings
Germ cells, the cells which give rise to a mammal's sperm or eggs, exhibit a five to ten-fold lower rate of spontaneous point mutations than adult somatic cells, which give rise to the body's remaining cell types, tissues and organs. Despite their comparatively higher mutation rates, however, adult somatic cells are used as the donor cells in a... view more... (2009-03-25)

Researchers Look to Imprinted Genes for Clues to Fetal Growth Restriction in Cloned Swine
Researchers at North Carolina State University have found that intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), which results in low birth weight and long-term deleterious health effects in cloned swine, is linked to a type of gene - known as an imprinted gene - found only in placental mammals.   view more (2009-07-21)
