Imagine if it turned out that instead of needing to build rockets, expensive satellites and computers to get to space, all that was needed was a big rubber band. That is essentially the scale of discovery that stem cell scientists are facing, as publications in Nature by researchers from Japan and the USA may provide a much simpler method of producing stem cells.
