Creation: The Promise of Stem Cells

Pioneering methods of human cloning give a paralyzed Texas doctor hope that he will walk again. Meanwhile in England, a couple prepares for the results of cloning the natural way: triplets. In this program, outstanding imagery gives a futuristic, highly visual portrayal of advances in stem cell development and genetic science. The efforts of Dr. José Cibelli, head of research at Advanced Cell Technology, which led to the first artificially cloned embryo, are paralleled with the incredible feat of genetic replication as it occurs naturally in the womb. Commenting on how these innovations have already dramatically changed human life are Professor Lee Silver, molecular biologist at Princeton University, and Nobel Prize-winning cell biologist Sir Paul Nurse. A BBC Production. (50 minutes, color)
