Stem Cell Research Interview

It was the day I had to set up an interview with an expert on the topic that I chose, stem cell research. After many google searches and phone calls I decided to interview Dr. Aaron Garman, a Family Medicine Practitioner who lives in North Dakota. Dr. Garman graduated from the University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Services and has been practising in the field for 20 years scense. I chose Dr. Garman because he is a doctor and occasionally works on or sees stem cell research from time to time. I was casually playing video games until the thought struck me that I needed to do my interview that day, so I cleaned myself up, and found a nice quiet place to conduct my interview. I was in my carpeted room, slouching in a chair, and had my door shut to block out any outside noises. I had my phone on speaker and my family’s iPad to record …show more content…

Even though I am entirely for stem cell research I see the other side of the controversy: scientists are using embryos which is where all humans once came from for a science experiment. Scientists aren't stealing fetuses at all, instead they are using the stem cells from aborted
