WTP 174: Stem Cell Breakthrough, Gitmo Wikileaks, and Bio-tech Tackles Obesity
The World's Technology Podcast Thanksgiving Early Edition, or something. This week, two separate teams of scientists in America and Japan claim a major scientific breakthrough in stem cell science. We have the details. Also, a manual of standard operating procedures at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility is leaked online. And we end with an in-depth look at how the bio-tech industry is trying to combat a growing global health issue -- obesity. All that, plus we pardon the Thanksgiving turkey, on this edition of The World's Technology Podcast.
