The article highlights the innuendos of President Bush\'s role in the lack of funding for stem cell research and the stiff limitations the field is plagued with. Whether or not you agree with all of the practices of stem cell research, the article is very informative of its uses. It outlines the ind...

Diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's are some of the most atrocious diseases that we know of. "A December poll commissioned by organizers showed that eighty- five percent of probable voters have a relative or close friend with one of these fiv...

In order to understand the moral issues on stem cell research, I must first define and clarify what a stem cell is, what it can be used for, how they are obtained, and why using adult stem cells isn\'t nearly as promising. Only after this will you be able to come to your own conclusion on whether or...

Both the American public and the government should fully support stem cell research because of the potential cures to seemingly hopeless diseases that will be discovered. Though people may have some moral or ethical objections toward stem cell research, it does not out way the loads of precious liv...

Stem cell research has become a huge topic over the past few years. Stem cell research raises many questions amongst those who are not fully aware of the capabilities to stem cells can provide. The most recent issue in stem cell research has to do with President Bush. On August 9, 2001, the preside...

HUMAN CLONING What is life exactly? "Well life is the course of existence of an individual; the actions and events that occur in living". Many have questioned whether human cloning is right or wrong. What is human cloning and stem cells? By taking a nucleus or DNA from a cell like ...

Summary In America, scientific research and technology are advancing every day. Scientists themselves have to read daily to learn the discoveries that have been revealed across the country. These new advances might be the missing link needed to find the cure for a major disease. For medical research...

By definition, stem cells can divide for indefinite periods in culture and give rise to specialized cells. Stem cells are best described in the context of human development. When fertilization occurs, it creates a single cell that can form an entire organism. Currently, the study of stem cells is an...

There are several important reasons why the isolation of human pluripotent stem cells are important to science and to advances in health care. At the most fundamental level, pluripotent stem cells (cells which have the potential to differentiate into any type of human tissue) can help us to underst...

When describing what stem cells are, it can be quite challenging to explain, so I have quoted The National Institutes of Heath: \"Stem cells are cells that can divide for indefinite periods in culture and give rise to specialized cells. They are best described in the context of normal human developm...

The stakes could not be higher: life and death, potential future cures or life-threatening disappointment. Stem cells could potentially result in treatments or cures for cancer, heart disease, diabetes and other diseases. However, leaders and legislators continue to place outdated and senseless rest...

Life Bestowed By Life Destroyed Now at days logic plays an important role in our way of thinking. It is outrageous to belief that if a treasure map would be found, the individual who detected it would leave the massive treasure to be undiscovered. It is cogent that throughout time noting has ...

Picture a world in which people are no longer living with devastating diseases and disorders like Partisans Disease, Diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease. That can be the case if barriers that now engulf stem cell research can be removed. Stem Cell research is by no means, a recent medical breakth...

Chicago scientist Richard Seed announced a plan to begin cloning human beings at his clinic in January of 1998. In November 1998, the National Bioethics Advisory Commission began conducting a thorough review of the issues associated with human stem cell research, in the United States. The stem cell...

The Linacre Center for Healthcare Ethics submitted a quite lengthy article, Stem Cell Research to the House of Lords Select Committee, in June of 2001. This article addressed the issue of human embryo cloning. The specific objective of this paper is to clarify and summarize the controversial debate ...

Human Cloning: Part A: Issues Introduction The issue I have chosen for this project is stem cell research and human cloning. I do not support this issue in any way. Each human life is unique and sacred unto itself. That human life becomes a human life at the second the sperm meets the egg. ...

Forever is reallllllyyy long Modern science wants to achieve the impossible, life that never ends. This is a great idea to some but the ways that are proposed are downright insane. While most people are all for immortality I have a hard time volunteering when there exists so many flaws. If you ta...

Stem cells are primitive types of cells in the body that can develop into 220 other types of cells, such as, red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, etc. Stem cells can be extracted from very young embryos and researched to hopefully effectively treat or cure life threatening diseases. Us...

Human cloning is becoming a realistic possibility as time moves on. Scientists know that this study can be completed. On July 5, 1996, a sheep named Dolly was born in the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, Scotland. Dolly was the first clone of a mammal from an adult cell. The birth of Dolly also intr...

We have all seen the movie Jurassic Park, Some may have even read the book. Both illustrate the dangers of letting science get too out of hand. In this story a scientist with goals of financial gain uses breakthroughs in cloning to interfere with nature by recreating dinousaurs that died off mill...

Reading over the original scientific study, we discover that the research team came to a rather important conclusion for the study of the development of biological species. Traditionally, it has been hypothesized that the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary (the KT boundary) was the precipitating even that...

Designer baby is a very recent topic that started around the late 20th century into the 21st century. Since the time DNA was discovered, genetic modification is advancing in our world. One discovery leads to the next, from fertilization by sperm injection to freeze-banking of embryos and postmeno...
