I support stem cell research, including embryonic stem cell research.
I wholeheartedly support umbilical stem cell research, but also support embryonic stem cell research.
A stem cell is essentially a blank cell capable of becoming another, more differentiated cell-type in the body, such as a skin cell, a muscle cell or a nerve cell.
I am all for stem cell research.
Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life and give hope for life to millions of people.
The first misconception is that embryonic stem cell research is not legal. The fact is, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal. Research on embryonic stem cells has taken place for years.
I'm very grateful that President Obama has lifted the restrictions on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research.
The Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act would expand research on embryonic stem cells by increasing the number of lines stem cells that would be eligible for federally funded research.
The refusal to acknowledge the scientific value of embryonic stem cell research is one more tragic misstep.
The federal and state governments should ban the use of taxpayer funds to support cloning and embryonic stem cell research.
In fact, many nations currently refuse to support embryonic stem cell research of any kind.
There are many alternatives to embryonic stem cell research, alternatives with great potential. We need to support these and oppose creating life for the sole purpose of destroying it.
With the advent of cell phones, especially with the very small microphone that attach to the cell phone itself, it's getting harder and harder I find, to differentiate between schizophrenics and people talking on a cell phone.
Embryonic stem cell research wears no political stripes - it is embraced by conservatives, liberals, Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.
The choice is not between conducting the stem cell research or not conducting it. That is not the choice.
You cannot be against embryonic stem cell research and be intellectually and therefore morally consistent, if you're not also against in vitro fertilization.
I am opposed to both cloning and the destruction of human embryos and adamantly opposed to funding of embryonic stem cell research.
Sadly, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years.
Embryonic stem cell research has the potential to alleviate so much suffering. Surely, by working together we can harness its life-giving potential.
To date, embryonic stem cell research has not produced a single medical treatment, where ethical, adult stem cell research has produced some 67 medical miracles.
Most of our brain cells are glial cells, once thought to be mere support cells, but now understood as having a critical role in brain function. Glial cells in the human brain are markedly different from glial cells in other brains, suggesting that th...
