Excerpts:
Bush's decision not to fund stem cell research is keeping the U.S. behind other countries like Southeast Asia, India, Japan and most parts of Europe, said Hardy, who writes a blog on the Frederick County Biotech Community.

"These countries will likely own most of the patent discoveries and make most of the money off products or therapeutics in the future," Hardy said.

Obama's transition chief John Podesta has said the new president could end the ban.
