A performer dances in front of a portrait of stem cell scientist Hwang Woo-suk during a rally demanding the government allow Hwang to continue his research in Seoul March 24, 2007. South Korea plans to remove some of the blocks to human embryonic stem cell research it set up after an embarrassing scientific scandal, a presidential panel said on Friday. South Korea imposed the ban after a panel at Seoul National University found in January 2006 that a team led by disgraced scientist Hwang had deliberately fabricated data in two papers initially hailed as landmarks in stem cell studies. The Korean letters read "Allow his research". REUTERS/Jo Yong-Hak (SOUTH KOREA)
