it? Stem cell research has been in the media since the day it was discovered. With the potential to cure many patients who are otherwise bound to die of diseases that are currently incurable‚ of course stem cells would be a big deal. But there are people who believe that stem cell research is a very inhuman and immoral act only because embryonic stem cells come from unborn embryos. Even within developed nations‚ research of stem cells is illegal because of this. These nations ignore a stem cell’s

with natural human life‚ stem cell research is helpful and effective due to the various diseases it has the potential to cure and the reduced risk of transplantation after surgery. Stem cells are versatile cells that have potential to develop into specific cells. Everyone has stem cells‚ however‚ they are much more dominant in a fetus than in an adult body. Stem cells have potential to create all specific cells in the body and repair or replace damaged cells. Stem cell research is important in society

Stem cells are "blank" cells that have the potential to develop into any type of cell in the body -- nerve cells‚ heart cells‚ kidney cells. Scientists are trying to harvest the cells before they have differentiated‚ then coax them into becoming certain types. If they could grow cardiac cells‚ for instance‚ scientists one day might be able to replace damaged heart tissue in someone who has had a heart attack. By growing nerve cells they might be able to repair brain cells damaged by Alzheimer’s or

writes about the research of direct reprograming of a stem cell the “Pluripotent stem cell” (iPS) How it was discovered and the incredible ability it has to transform into any other tissue in the human body. Along with the trials and tribulations scientists had to go through generating iPS cells like the protesting and strict laws against using ES Cells due to the fact that the ES Cells are derived from the inner cell masses (ICM) of blastocysts also known as Embryonic Stem (ES) Cells and the embryos

Stem Cell Research: The Opportunity to Change Your Life Back to Normal Why is it that we don’t appreciate what we have until we don’t have it anymore? You don’t think much of your legs‚ your arms‚ or your eye. But it is only when you are unable to use one of these parts‚ or know that you will never be able to use it again‚ when you realize the grave importance of it. But what if I could tell you there is a way to repair the loss of that once unappreciated part of your body? With Stem Cell research

April 26‚ 2011 Is Stem Cell Research Good or Bad? Stem cell research is a very complex subject. “Stem cells hold great potential for developing therapies to treat a wide range of human diseases. Already in clinical use is blood stem cell transplant‚ known well as bone marrow transplant therapy for the treatment of patients with certain types of blood diseases and cancers. The discovery of stem cells in various adult tissues‚ stem cells plasticity‚ and human embryonic stem cells bring excitement

might be a way to do that. Stem cell research despised by many may lead to cures and unimaginable human development? The public is scared because of negative outcomes such as cloning and etc. But who care about that. Our society needs to stop thinking in such a negative light and we may rise to the top and achieve goals with thought we wouldn’t see for years to come. Stem cell research has been looked down upon‚ but why? Scientist believe that the research of stem cells may lead to a brighter future

distasteful blessing to most‚ stem cells taken from aborted fetuses in order to conduct forward-moving health research‚ causes ethical chaos between those of 21st century science and those of impenetrable morality. The pros of this research factually out-weigh the cons created by humanity’s biased principals‚ but these ethical principals endowed to society upon generations will always argue what is “truly right.” What research has been done in the use of stem cells has shown to be very successful
