Cell sources and support programs for stem cell research and cell-based therapy in the USA.

In August 2002, the Health & Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson and National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director Elias Zerhouni announced the creation of a new NIH Task Force to advance stem cell research. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), with a long history of sponsored research programs for stem cell biology, is participating in the NIH Stem Cell Task Force to facilitate stem cell and embryonic stem (ES) cell research including programs to improve access to cell sources. Programs being implemented include infrastructure enhancement awards to develop eligible human ES cell lines into distribution-quality cell lines, grant supplements for human ES cell line research, an educational program to provide laboratory courses on human ES cell culture techniques, and a new training program to assist investigators wishing to re-direct their laboratories into stem cell research.

How can you patent genes?

What accounts for the continued lack of clarity over the legal procedures for the patenting of DNA sequences? The patenting system was built for a "bricks-and-mortar" world rather than an information economy. The fact that genes are both material molecules and informational systems helps explain the difficulty that the patent system is going to continue to have.

Protecting the residency training environment: a resident's perspective on the ethical boundaries in the faculty-resident relationship.

OBJECTIVE: This article explores ethical complexities that underlie resident-faculty relationships. The faculty-resident relationship is as complex as that between a therapist and his or her patient, but it has been far less well studied. METHODS: From data obtained from psychiatry residents and faculty members regarding their experiences in this relationship, the authors present five vignettes that illustrate unethical conduct in the faculty-resident relationship. RESULTS: Ethical lapses described in this article are problematic for two reasons: first, personal and professional harm may come to individual residents who find themselves interacting with an errant faculty member; and second, ethical lapses have the potential to damage the overall training environment itself. Once the terms of the faculty-resident relationship are discussed and accepted by all participants, unintentional or inadvertent ethical problems will be prevented, and residents will be in a position to identify faculty behaviors that do not conform to these agreed-upon expectations. CONCLUSIONS: This article highlights the importance of incorporating education about ethical responsibilities and faculty-resident boundaries into the training curriculum. The authors offer suggestions for understanding faculty members' responsibilities to residents in their training programs.
