Induced pluripotent stem cell

not have anything to do with producing more offspring’s. It is about transplanting normal genes to places where it is needed, to correct certain disorders or mutations. This process, while it may save millions of lives, when it involves embryonic cells, it kills the potential of life. Although, I agree that we are on a course to push the scales of science even…

research that is known as stem cell research that could lead to several medical and scientific revolutions, but numerous people argues that stem cell research is unethical and it stirs up many conflicts with religious groups. Stem cells are very unique cells that have the potential to perform various specific tasks. Many of the common people argue about the ways to retrieve the stems cells. There are also countless advantages and disadvantages of stem cell research. Is stem cell research right…

After watching “Milgram Experiment” and “Stanford prison Experiment” I was intrigued to read “Research and Experimentation” by Cyril H. Wecht. In this article, he seriously enlightened me on the history and great examples of a few questionable research experiments used on humans. Cyril starts off by explaining how the CIA carried out various unethical human experiments that lead to serious injury even death in some cases. These types of experiments caught the eye of World Medical Association…

Earliest research projects on cloning technology launched in late 20th century. With advancement of science, there was a breakthrough in 1998— a human embryo clone was created.(But then destroyed after 12 days.) This discovery indicates that the era which there is common usage in human clones will not be far away and it is something we all should be aware which the ethical issues should be well-addressed. While human clones have intelligence and physical properties that are identical to that of…

Looking at the decline of U.S. investment in global research, the increase in industry sponsored research, the closeness of university research to the marketplace, and the shortage of STEM educated college graduates and technicians, American research administrators could soon experience a rather unfortunate series of events. From being more overworked to witnessing the eradication of the career altogether, research administrators can…

What is the public opinion on genetic testing? Some see it as a faulty and unreliable waste of time and money, and others that truly understand it see it was a very beneficial way to save millions of lives. Genetic testing uses laboratory methods to look at your genes, which are the DNA instructions you inherit from your mother and your father. Genetic tests may be used to identify increased risks of health problems, to choose treatments, or to assess responses to treatments (NHGR 1). Genetic…

Home » Home and Family » Pets Why Veterinary Stem Cell Therapy Offers New Hope Harrison Foy By Harrison Foy Sep 18, 2015 In the recent past, stem cell therapy has changed the way medicine is practiced. While most people have heard about bone marrow, there is another treatment option that has gained momentum. Stem cell therapy involves harvesting and modifying stem cells from fat and is commonly used in the treatment of osteoarthritis. Stem cell therapy can also be used in the treatment of…

the things that consider everything that we need to know, like math. Algebra was called “al-jabr” before Muhammad translated it to what it’s called now and he made it into what it is now. It states in http://gatesofvienna.net/, “The word “algebra” stems from the Arabic word “al-jabr”, from the name of the treatise Book on Addition and Subtraction after the Method of the Indians written by the 9th-century Persian mathematician Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, who translated, formalized and…

will discuss the potential uses for stem cells from umbilical cord blood. I will also discuss the advantages of using umbilical cord blood versus a bone marrow transplant as a source of stem cells; and I will justify whether umbilical cord blood banks should exist at all. First, I would like to begin by explaining what stem cells are and why they are important. Stem cells are a type of cell that divides continuously and can give rise to other types of cells. (Biology of Humans: Concepts,…

A brave new world is an idea of what will happen in the future. The idea of placement in society, and new technologies in science. Today we can make clones out of humans by multiplying cells and speedy cell growth process. In the 1930’s they never would have known how far we have come but they had an approximal idea. The technologies we have now are so close to unlocking the skills they have in the book. The advanced technologies could already exist and is just now open to the public. In a brave…
