Embryonic stem cells The term "stem cell" in Websters dictionary defines it as "An unspecialized cell that gives rise to differentiated cells"‚ which is a fancy way of saying "stem cells can be used to copy and turn into any other type of cell". To understand Embryonic stem cells‚ we must go back to the Discovery of stem cells in general. Stem cell research first dates back to the late 1800’s‚ when scientist first observed evidence of cells able to produce other cell types. There was a gap in

Stem Cell Research and its Implications LAS 432 Perry Furgason Shannon Johnson Kelly Hanson Kimberly Houser 10/05/2014 Introduction Stem cells are unspecialized cells that have the ability through cell division to become specialized cells. These cells possess regenerative properties for longer periods of time than other cells. And‚ in certain conditions can be induced to become tissue or organ specific cells. By seeking to understand their regenerative process‚ scientists can treat

into play. Embryonic stem cell research has faced the negative spotlight for many years. The false misconceptions surrounding stem cells is clouded by the idea that they are acquired through intentionally killing a life of a potential human being. These false statements facilitated by anti-abortion organizations has slowed down the progress that could have been achieved through science on a logical and ethnically driven basis. Embryonic stem cells should be used for medical research because they harness

02 Spring 2002 March 15‚ 2002 Cloning‚ and Stem Cell Research Technology has advanced a great deal within the past few years. We have learned so much information about animal’s genes and what can be done with them. However‚ with this new information brings new questions and arguments. So far‚ scientists have successfully cloned a sheep‚ a monkey‚ a bull‚ and are working on an endangered breed of ox‚ of course cloning animals and conducting research on those animals does not concern many people

Assertion 1 The reason that embryonic stem cell researchers are agitating for taxpayer money is that their private funding has dried up. Private investors and venture capitalists are not investing in embryonic stem cell research because they perceive it to be a pipe dream unlikely to produce any progress and‚ hence‚ investment returns‚ in any reasonable time frame. —Steven Milloy LACK OF FUNDS Geron the first company to get the green light for trials‚ quit and is selling that part of the
