Imagine a world where organ transplants could be done without another person dying or having to sacrifice an organ as a living donor to save your family members life. In this same world there wouldn't be a disparity between the number of the people needing organs and....
Embryonic Stem Cell Research Pros And Cons
Embryonic stem cell research is perhaps one of the most controversial topics of health and science that exists today; it is both a strongly supported and equally protested ethical issue; I too am on the fence about embryonic stem cell research. The controversy is fueled by adamant protest from pro-....
Embryonic Stem Cell Symposium Speech
Out of the 450 IVF clinics in the USA there is an estimated 400 000 left over embryos and only 2.8% of theses are being designated for stem cell research. That leaves approximately 389 000 embryos that have been frozen and stored for any where up to 10 years and they could have been used to help oth....

Should cloning be banned?
Cloning is the process of making a genetically identical organism through asexual reproduction.
There are two methods of cloning. The first one is called Blastomere separation that involves the splitting of a developing embryo after fertilization to give rise to two embryos. Both embryos are genet....
