The article references peer-reviewed papers and does not sensationalise results.

There is a clear description of stem cells, epigenetic memory and why iPS cells will be useful in treating human diseases. They briefly discuss the ethical concerns surrounding the use of embryonic stem cells, and portray adult iPS cells as the solution. However, more could have been done to balance the ethical considerations of adult iPS cell usage, such as individual privacy.
