Therapeutic Cloning: Do the benefits outweigh the risks? Therapeutic cloning is an evolutionary technology with the potential to significantly improve life quality and open doorways for technologies previously considered unattainable. This technology could be used to create organs for transplants constructed from the patient’s own genetic material‚ provide potential cures for some genetic diseases‚ all from an easily accessible source. However‚ there are numerous risks and costs involved with this

Have you ever imagined what life would be like if we could eliminate human problems and diseases such as AIDs‚ cancer and human organ shortages? This is the question that arises when the subject of cloning is brought up and I believe that cloning is the next generation of medicine and can be beneficial to humanity
