I support stem cell research, including embryonic stem cell research.
I wholeheartedly support umbilical stem cell research, but also support embryonic stem cell research.
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.
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.
Sadly, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years.
Personally, I attach great importance to research in fundamental sciences because I believe that no applied or developmental research can do without basic research as the wellspring and driving force. But, in this world of ours, often because of mate...
I am all for stem cell research.
The choice is not between conducting the stem cell research or not conducting it. That is not the choice.
I urge researchers to make use of the opportunities that are available to them and to do all they can to fulfill the promise that stem cell research offers.
Researchers should always consider ethical concerns on scientific research and disclose their data to the public. Scientists also need to discuss issues surrounding their research with those who are concerned.
Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life and give hope for life to millions of people.
At NIH, what tends to happen is that the proven researchers tend to get the money. New researchers, younger researchers, or people on the cutting edge don't get the money until they have gray beards.
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.
One area where this misperception has hit hard has been research on child sexual abuse. Despite an explosion of research on the issue over recent decades, most research reported in the literature is focused on girls. There is significantly less atten...
To cure ALS medically is not economical. The realities are that it's difficult to find funding for research for a medical cure. I believe in developing technology as opposed to medical research. Technology can be economical.
The purpose of any ceremony is to build stronger relationship or bridge the distance between our cosmos and us. The research that we do as Indigenous people is a ceremony that allows us a raised level of consciousness and insight into our world. Thro...
I'm very grateful that President Obama has lifted the restrictions on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research.
Basically, I like research because research is like to solve the quiz, you know. Always there is a problem, and I have to solve the problem. So I like those patterns. It's almost like research is sort of in a quiz.
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.
