Welcome and Announcements

CHAIRMAN PELLEGRINO:  Good morning.  Try to keep our custom of beginning on time and we plan also to end on time.

I'd like to welcome you all to a meeting of the President's Council on Bioethics.  My first action has to be to make us legal.  To be legal, we have to recognize the presence of the Designated Federal Official, Dan Davis, who is the Executive Director of the President's Council.
