We can’t wait to read David’s new paper!

My short opinion piece with @vanessa_kind on how the science behind the creation of Dolly the sheep has been widely misunderstood. It appears in The Biologist, @RoyalSocBio: thebiologist.rsb.org.uk/biologist/158-…

Clear case for revision of the term ‘somatic cell nuclear transfer’ which is misleading and is shown here to have been misunderstood at various levels.

Following yesterday's announcement, a working paper with @NiGhrainne where we argue for the importance of taking Ireland's international law obligations into account in drafting, interpretation & monitoring of new laws #legisl8 #repealedthe8th ssrn.com/abstract=32563…
