JOHN HALPERN clearly remembers what made him change his mind about
psychedelic drugs. It was the early 1990s and the young medical student at a hospital in Brooklyn, New York, was getting frustrated that he could not do more to help the alcoholics and addicts in his care. He sounded off to an older psychiatrist, who mentioned that LSD and related drugs had once been considered promising treatments for addiction. "I was so fascinated that I did all this research," Halpern recalls. "I was reading all these papers from the 60s and going, whoa, wait a minute! How come nobody's talking about this?"

LONDON (Reuters) - A biotechnology company has developed a long-lasting artificial skin that has produced promising results in healing wounds in early clinical trials.
Scientists said the advance could mark a breakthrough in regenerative medicine.
Intercytex Group, which specialises in cell therapy, said on Tuesday its laboratory-made living skin was fully and consistently integrated into the human body. The group's shares rose 12 percent to 66-1/2 pence in early trade.
The new skin appears to work better than other substitutes tried in the past, which biodegrade in situ after a few weeks.
