    Peer Review Paper Stem Cell Research has been one of the most hotly debated ethical scientific dilemmas of the past twenty years. The basic arguments have been based around the idea of which life is more important‚ that of the unborn embryo or that of the potential human life that stem cell research and the application from that embryo might save. In recent years though this concern has dwindled a considerable amount as scientists have begun to experiment with adult somatic cells in place of embryos

    ARE STEM CELLS? Before I can explain the cons of stem cell research‚ I must explain what stem cells actually are. Stem cells are defined as essentially the beginning cells of a human being‚ which are capable of becoming all or many of the 210 different kinds of tissues in the human body. 1 These cells divide‚ generating two "daughter cells"‚ one of which will become something new and another which will replace the original cell. That is where the term "stem" comes from‚ meaning stem cells give

    Stem cells are "blank" cells that have the potential to develop into any type of cell in the body -- nerve cells‚ heart cells‚ kidney cells. Scientists are trying to harvest the cells before they have differentiated‚ then coax them into becoming certain types. If they could grow cardiac cells‚ for instance‚ scientists one day might be able to replace damaged heart tissue in someone who has had a heart attack. By growing nerve cells they might be able to repair brain cells damaged by Alzheimer’s or

    Stem cells are cells that have the ability to become any cell type in the body such as a muscle‚ a brain‚ or red blood cell‚ or any other cell. Because of that‚ they are able to repair organs and tissues and can potentially treat diseases such as diabetes and heart disease‚ which is the number one killer in the Unites States. Although stem cells can help massively‚ there is ethical controversy surrounding embryonic stem cell research. Embryonic stem cell research involves taking the stem cells from

    What are pros and cons of stem cell research? Stem cell research has great potential to eliminate or treat many diseases that are chronic and do not have many treatment options. Using stem cell research can give people suffering from these new diseases a new chance at life. Diseases like Alzeimer’s‚ Parkinson’s‚ and even spinal cord injuries can benefit from this type of research as it improves the severity of the symptoms. This type of research can also help with transplants as these cells are reprogrammed
