Abstract
Human embryonic stem cells have been characterized as a rare and precious resource because of the scarcity of the materials used in their creation and the many restrictions that have been placed on their derivation and use. With the advent of induced pluripotent stem cells, however, pluripotency stands to become a plentiful and unencumbered commodity.
