      • James Thomson, considered the father of hES cell research and predictor of future discoveries in the field, describes this class of embryonic cells as distinguished by their “developmental plasticity” and by how they can be derived in the first place. hES cells are derived from in vitro‐fertilized embryos, harvested once the ICM sprouts from the inner layer of the blastocyst.
