While that possibility is still years away, the new techniques could someday be used to obtain replacement tissue for patients using their own cells--thus avoiding the need for donors and the dangers of rejection...
...they are essentially gone. But that may not be the case, at least not in mice. Researchers discovered that specialized stem cells in the ovaries make new eggs throughout the mouse's life--and there is a hint the same might be true for humans.

Paisley's still opposed to that, but says he's willing to argue. "If they leave down their guns, I am prepared to talk with them...
