No research on stem cells that I'm aware of. Ireland has come a long way in 20 years, but in many ways it's still a conservative country.
We recently voted
in favour of EU regulations supporting stem cell research, and it created quite a bit of debate in the country. Having said that, I don't believe much research would actually take place in Ireland. I suspect you will see that primarily happening in the UK and France (which has a long and noteworthy history in medical research).
Of course, we're all behind the Asian countries like Korea and Japan.
