By Matthew Green
NYERI, Kenya (Reuters) - Kenyan health workers said on Tuesday they were on alert for an outbreak of the deadly ebola virus as officials investigated what might be the country's first recorded case of the killer disease.
Hospital staff called a team of government researchers to investigate after a woman died in the central town of Nyeri last week from a feverish illness with symptoms reminiscent of ebola.

Researchers at UCLA and the University of Pittsburgh say they have isolated human stem cells from fat sucked out of patients during routine liposuctions.
That finding opens the prospect of a more abundant supply of the cells, which are needed for promising medical research, and drawn from the same fat many Americans would be more than happy to donate in the name of science.
