Stem Cell Research Outline

Introduction: Stem cells, some are created by a human embryo. Some say this is wrong, others say there is no harm from taking it from couples that have too many blastocysts than they need, so they donated it to research. What are the outcomes compared to the downside? The outcome is a new chance for life. The benefits to stem cell research outweigh the downside of taking embryos, with these studies and funding, the benefits to the medical community will be outstanding. Although there are many moral and ethnical issues regarding this topic, it will be of new beginnings and chances for others.

3.     Conclusion

Conclusion: Although there are many downsides of stem cell research, the outcomes can be endless. Stem cells have the possibility of being anything. Us as human beings need to realize that we need new cures to survive, most importantly, survive cancer. Although stem cell can involve human embryos, we should not put a halt to the research. The government may stop new cells from being harvested, but the research of the ones always taken and revived for science should be able to be used. Scientists have spent a lot of money and time into the efforts of stem cell research, and may sill have a chance to change the outcome of otherwise bad events. The benefits to stem cell research outweigh the downside of taking embryos, with these studies and funding, the benefits to the medical community will be outstanding. No one will know where science is heading, we will only know when we get there.
