Stem cells are a growing field for research. Many pursue this field due to the fact that it can solve many illnesses. Since stem cells are extracted from embryos‚ people have an ethical problem with it. Those who research stem cells believe there are ethical restrictions‚ but that is not true. As a result of stem cell research‚ embryos are being harmed or destroyed; therefore stem cell research should only be performed if there is an alternative solution. Stem cells are undefined cells that are

Opposing Embryonic Stem Cell Research Stem cell research has a lot to offer in the way of treatments‚ or even cures to some devastating diseases that humans face. However‚ research using human embryonic stem cells that can only be obtained by killing a human embryo can not be condoned or paid for by the United States Government. Federal funding needs to focus on the adult stem cell research that has already been proven successful and can be obtained without destroying a human life. Ethics

Stem cell research is an emotive subject. Some maintain that it is unethical to introduce stem cell research. While others believe that stem cell research could potentially help save many lives. With the advances in stem cell research‚ we should now be able to help save people who are affected with such diverse diseases such as Parkinson’s‚ Alzheimer’s and heart disease. Stem cells also have the capability to aid others with debilitating diseases and to help those who have suffered damage to critical

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

Stem Cell Research: Right or Wrong? Many people believe that stem cell research could be helpful or destructive. Stem cells are the body’s raw materials. They are cells from which any other cells with specialized functions are generated. They can be used to become a specialized cell(s) (differentiation) with a more specific function such as brain cells‚ heart muscle or bone‚ blood cells. Stems cells are useful because no other cell in the human body has the (natural)

Stem cell research is the study of cells which are known as unspecialised cells these cells are also known and referred to as stem cells. A stem cell has the ability to differentiate into any cell during early growth and development of an organism. Stem cells all have very unique qualities; these qualities help them to serve the body’s needs. They are able to survive for long periods of time as they can regenerate themselves and also self-replicate‚ they are also unspecialised cells and have the

The stem cell policy prevents federal funded researchers from working on all‚ but a few sources of embryonic stem cells. The policy can help decrease government spending and serves as a purpose to those who view stem cell research as ethically and morally problematic. The stem cell policy‚ a good idea in the aspects of preventing usage and destruction of human embryonic stem cells and supported by those who view stem cell research as a negative externality to the country. The government has deducted

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

Dilemma on Stem Research Discussion of the bioethics of human stem cell research has transitioned from controversies over the source of human embryonic stem cells to concerns about the ethical use of stem cells in basic and clinical research. Key areas in this evolving ethical discourse include the derivation and use of other human embryonic stem cell–like stem cells that have the capacity to differentiate into all types of human tissue and the use of all types of stem cells in clinical research.

Many different debates have been raised to justify and unjustified the use of stem cells for research throughout the years. The two most enduring debates that have stood the test of time have been the legal and ethical issues. The has been documented in countless research studies
