The student prize went to Swansea Metropolitan architectural glass MA student Rhian Haf of Gwythevin, Abergele, for her glass sculpture Glass, Light and Space - a group of glass houses cast using an ancient lost wax technique.
Instead of generating embryonic stem cell lines via nuclear transfer, Hwang's group produced the stem cells from days-old embryos, a technique that had already been established by James Thomson at University of Wisconsin in 1998.
