    Embryonic stems cells are cells that can be mutated or change, possibility allowing scientist to discover cures to disease and illness. These cells are the very beginning of human creation, or an embryo, but is not a human. The more to the left someone is on the ideological spectrum, the more likely they are to support the research of stem cells. The goal of the left side of the ideological spectrum is to change to the status quo or designed it policies better. The more to the left you are on…

    study, stem cell research. Stem cells are unspecialized cell found predominantly in embryos and adult body tissue that have the potential to take on the role of another cell. The discovery of human embryonic stem cells in the late 1990’s and paved a new road for regenerative medicine. The often-misconstrued stance of the Catholic Church regarding stem cell research has shined a negatively misinformed light on the Church and its followers. Stem cells are defined as “undifferentiated” cells,…

    Stem Cell Research is a very controversial topic. Some people are unaware of what it is and what it means for healthcare. It is the remedy of health ailments of the future and it should be supported so that scientists can continue to work on the cure for a plethora of health issues. First let’s answer the question “What are Stem Cells?” “Stem Cells are the foundation cells for every organ and tissues in our bodies. (ISSCR) There are a few different types of stem cells. There are adult stem…

    Stem cells have always been a “hot button issue” in America ever since 1998 when President Bill Clinton requested a National Advisory Commission to study the topic of stem cell research. Being that stem cells are a relatively new discovery and research has been heavily restricted, many people know little about them. Without prior background knowledge, it becomes easy for us to be manipulated in an argument. Logos is one of the trickiest forms of rhetoric used, because it employs reason and logic…

    Bioethical Debate: Stem Cells Ella Reich 1˚ AP Biology, Carlmont High School Introduction The possible uses of stem cells are a very controversial topic in modern biology and medicinal science. Stem cells are unspecialized body cells that have the ability to grow and develop into many various types of cells in the body. For example, a single stem cell has the potential to develop into a blood cell, a brain cell, a tissue cell, a muscle cell, or several other specialized cells. Stem cells…

    timeline of stem cell research, scientists have learned about the different types of stem cells and their functions while trying to avoid ethical and funding issues that arise as obstacles. Studies on human stem cells allow scientists to attempt to create cures for diseases like Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, and myocardial infarction while also better understanding the development and differentiation of human cells (Lo and Parham). Differentiation is the process of unspecialized cells changing…

    Stem Cell Research Science Stem cells are important because they have special properties that separate them from other cells. Some of those properties include their regenerative nature, this gives them the ability to regenerate and change as to adapt to the environment of any specialised cell. Stem cells also have the bailey to repair themselves and multiply to repair and replace other specialised cells and damaged tissues in the body (James 2009). Stem cells have there ability to change so…

    scientific studies or for any research that requires the destruction of the embryos. In 2001, former President, George W. Bush, restricted federal funding for embryonic stem cell research because the process of retrieving embryonic stem cells is by the destruction of an embryo (Edmonds). Bush believed that destroying the embryo was devaluing human life. The restriction of fundings towards embryonic stem cell research put almost a stop to many companies that were doing such research with…
