The science of cloning has truly come of age: it now has its own specialist
journal. The new quarterly Cloning is edited by Ian Wilmut of the
Roslin Institute near Edinburgh, co-creator of Dolly the sheep. “Cloning is of
increasing importance to research and medicine,” he says. “This will stimulate
more discussion over basic scientific issues.” Besides original peer-reviewed
research, Cloning will publish reviews of cloning literature, websites
and books, and provide summaries of proposed legislation and government policies
relating to the technology. See the first issue at
