Just when the hope for stem cell research and regenerative medicine was starting to revive in the United States, chief judge Royce Lambert has applied a temporary injunction banning all federal funding for stem cell research. As usual the primary point taken into consideration is "research based on destroying embryos". This has resulted in halting several key researches presently functional at various states in America. This is also a huge blow to the Obama administration which had overruled the previous ban on embryonic stem cell research. Scientists across the States are awaiting the final decision which could very well results in temporary shutting down of various labs. The final outcome will decide the fate of embryonic stem cell research in USA.
