In Chinese mythology, the dragon is a benign creature, very different from the fierce predator of Western fables. Which type of dragon we [India] find across our borders will depend as much on us as on China. If we measure up to the economic and security challenge posed by China's rapid rise, we will find that the dragon has Chinese characteristics. China is a challenge, and not a threat, to India |

But the operation is the first published ] report of a whole bone being engineered and incubated ] inside a patient's body and transplanted. ] ] Stem cells are the master cells of the body that go on to ] become every tissue in the body. They are a hot area of ] research with scientists trying to find ways to prompt ] them to make desired tissues, and perhaps organs.
