Harris hails HFEA decision on hybrids5.00.00pm UTC (GMT +0000) Wed 5th Sep 2007 Responding to the news that the HFEA has supported cytoplasmic hybrid embryo research, Dr Evan Harris Liberal Democrat Science Spokesman, who has also co-ordinated the campaign of scientific groups to allow hybrid embryo research, said, "This is good news for patients, the public and UK science. Our top-class researchers can now proceed with their applications to conduct this world-leading research." "The message to the Government is also clear - that they should stop trying to use legislation to block some forms of hybrid embryo research and instead allow the HFEA to consider each application on its merits."
