ESTOOLS - Advances with human embryonic stem cells - Italian stem cell scientists in legal challenge
Italian stem cell scientists in legal challenge
Three Italian scientists, who challenged their government’s decision to exclude embryonic stem cell research from a major funding call, have been told they have no right to appeal. They will now take their case to a higher court, the State Council, where they will argue that the decision violates their constitutional rights and puts academic freedom at risk.

The ESTOOLS project completed its 4 years of activity. This website remains online as a reference archive.
