I was reading Slashdot and came across this article about "Mark Roth".
The Mad Scientist Bringing Back the Dead.... Really.

Bubbling cauldrons, toxic substances, insane and dangerous ideas -- whatever happened to that kind of science? Take a look at Mark Roth in his lab in Seattle. It's mad. It's heroic. It's science the way it's supposed to be.
