Issues Of Stem Cell Research When it comes to great controversial debates Stem Cell Research is one of the first that comes to my mind. It involves concerning issues that many Americans today argue that have positive or destructive outcomes. It’s a touchy subject but one that must be addressed if it is to be accepted by all those around us.

Abstract To define why adult stem cell research’s is more ethically sound and its track record is so far superior to claims made for embryonic stem cell possibilities to date and why this success will make better laws with more bipartisan agreement possible. In as much has been spoken of the possibilities of stem cells in the regeneration and therapeutic uses for the human condition it is becoming evidently apparent from research advancement that stem cell research in all its forms can yield medical

Internal Assessment 3.2 Biology Research a contemporary biological issue Introduction Stem cells are undifferentiated cells able to differentiate into specialized cell types. These are used for stem cell treatment‚ which is an intervention strategy that introduces new adult stem cells into damaged tissue in order to treat disease or injury. For over 30 years‚ bone marrow and‚ more recently‚ umbilical cord blood stem cells have been used to treat cancer patients with leukaemia and lymphoma because

Due to recent discoveries‚ stem cell research will have many future medical possibilities. A recent stem cell breakthrough shows that cloning human organs or body parts to treat patients with injured organs or limb deficiencies could be possible. “The cloning techniques can also be used to grow organs for patients with a failing liver or kidney.” Because the newly cloned organ will be genetically identical to the one being replaced‚ rather than a donated one‚ the chances of it being rejected will
