Is there a difference between a biologist and a biological scientist? ... A biologist tends to study ecology, zoology and plant sciences such as botany - the "arts" end of science. Biological science will tend to study the less practical and more "hard science" based ends such as microbiology, genetics and biochemistry. 1, record 1, English, - biological%20scientist

From the Embryo to the Lab. As an audience of scientists and reporters heard at the recent meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, researchers are closer than ever to the test-tube tooth. Specifically, they are harnessing do-it-all stem cells to re-create the tooth buds that form in the early embryo. The idea is to implant these "primordial teeth" into human jaws and let the cells take it from there. Using a patient's own stem cells bypasses the rejection problems that so often happen in ordinary transplants. 2, record 3, English, - test%2Dtube%20tooth

La innovación científica, según los especialistas, significa una revolución en la Odontología, pues soluciones mecánicas, como la prótesis o el implante, darán lugar a la herramienta biológica, y por tanto el diente de laboratorio puede significar la jubilación de la dentadura postiza. La utilización de células madre adultas es un considerable avance en relación con otros intentos por desarrollar dientes biológicos, señalaron los científicos del proyecto [...] 4, record 3, Spanish, - diente%20de%20laboratorio
