GENERATION AND CHARACTERISATION OF INDUCED PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS (iPSCs) FROM ADULT CANINE FIBROBLASTS
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 24(1), 285.
TL;DR:
The isolated canine iPSCs have similar characteristics to ESCs from other species, but the exact cellular mechanisms behind their unique co-dependency on both FGF and LIF is still unknown.

Toward a Legitimate Public Policy on Cognition-Enhancement Drugs
AJOB Neuroscience, 3(3), 29–33.
TL;DR:
The author analyzes and refutes three reasons that some influential authors in the field of neuroethics might have for downplaying the importance of justice and points to a conclusion that introducing economic disincentives for the use of cognition-enhancement drugs would be the most legitimate public policy.
