US faces science brain drain after Europe backs stem cell funding

The United States is risking a "brain drain", in which its scientists
will flock across the Atlantic, after the EU reached a "historic" deal
yesterday on human embryonic stem cells.
A week after George Bush limited federal funds for the highly sensitive
area, the EU warned Washington that "disillusioned" US scientists will
want to make the most of Europe's more liberal rules.
Lord Sainsbury, Britain's science minister, said:
"There are a group of American scientists who are very disillusioned.
In this field we have seen US scientists coming to the UK. If the US
continues to take this very negative position I think within this field
of regenerative medicine we will see scientists come from America and
from other parts of the world, who would have gone to America, to the
UK instead."

With history moving so fast these days you might also want to sort
Harry Hope's posts by "relevance" particulary if the lies and
misdirection that we are all being sujected to by the extensive Bush
Crime Family Propagand machine are confusing you. Using the "sort by
relevance" option has a way of letting you take in the big picture.
