Are there any areas of research involving human pluripotent stem cells that are ineligible for NIH funding?
The Federal Register Announcement National Institutes of Health Guidelines for Research Using Human Pluripotent Stem Cells (230k PDF; requires Adobe Reader), published August 25, 2000, was “superceded as it pertains to embryonic stem cell research” on November 14, 2001). However, Section II. B, titled “Utilization of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Derived from Human Fetal Tissue,” still governs human embryonic germ cell research. In addition, Section III, titled “Areas of Research Involving Human Pluripotent Stem Cells That Are Ineligible for NIH Funding,” governs both human embryonic stem cell and human embryonic germ cell research.
