Bobrow, James C. “The Ethics and Politics of Stem Cell Research.” Trans Am Opthalmol Soc 103. (2005): 138-142. Web. 4 October 2015
In the scholarly article, “The Ethics and Politics of Stem Cell Research,” written by James C. Bobrow, he explains that the use of stem cells in research to repair genetic dysfunctions is controversial in economics and ethics. Bobrow uses unbiased claims of what scientists are expected to do in this field and their work “to recognize the dynamics of the interaction between society and science when ethical issues influence how decisions are made.” Bobrow’s purpose in his paper is to promote the importance of knowledge and understanding for the efforts of the scientific community in order to avoid ethical and legal …show more content…
The paper simply outlines the manners in which stem cells can be used for eventual human transplantations, and this is still the case today. The article falls under the natural sciences, covering stem cell research capabilities through experimentation and observation. The team members are from the department of surgery, medicine, or anatomy from the University of Wisconsin Schools of Medicine, and the Regional Primate Research Center in Madison, Wisconsin. This all makes them well qualified for researching this field and establishing the different ways that the embryonic cells can be used to ultimately lead to clinical trials.The scientists in this study provide unbiased information, using raw data and diagrams to illustrate the manner in which embryos move to stem cultures, photos of the cells in different forms, and photos of different results when human embryonic cells are injected into …show more content…
The author talked about how the entire lab dreaded the white box with fetal tissue, but everyone did their best to not waste a single drop so that the “cells were not simply trash.” Holt is making the point that even though scientists may not agree on performing stem cell research on fetal tissue, those lives would have still been aborted. This article was written in a popular newspaper for any reader to see, specifically those who oppose fetal stem cell research so that they may read a new perspective on the
