Doyle for stem cell research

In a move that will help researchers at UW-Madison, Gov. Jim Doyle discouraged the Legislature from introducing or passing bills that would restrict stem-cell research.  

 

 

 

In a press conference Wednesday, Doyle referred to stem-cell research as a \promising field"" and said the field provides high-paying jobs and furthers the development of the biotechnology industry, which will help Wisconsin's current poor economic situation. 

 

 

 

The governor said if such legislation would be passed, it would dissuade researchers and investors from building a high technology economy in Wisconsin.
