The advancements that have been made in the past few years have shown that the stem cells have a lot of power and that they should be used for a variety of instances in the human treatments. The problems that have surfaced are connected with the population’s disbelief in the information that is presented through the media. Many have speculated that the advancements presented are actually lies, but there are patients who have been a part of the clinical trials involving treatment through the stem cells and who have managed to get a better life expectancy as a result. In addition to this, numerous hospitals around the world, most of them which have carried out clinical trials on stem cells, have started programs on curing various diseases with them or at least to help the ones suffering have a better and more normal life.

The embryonic stem cell research is continuing through clinical trials and a variety of other tests. It is important for the world of medicine that the population understands the benefits that can surface from the discoveries done on the subject. The results sought after are focused on finding the treatment for some of the most dangerous diseases of our society today. The embryonic stem cell research is the base of the treatments for cancers of all kinds in the idea that this is one of the diseases that needs an urgent solution treatment, as it has been devastating to people around the world. The treatment with the stem cells is used nowadays in aiding those suffering from paralysis and multiple sclerosis, in the hope that the affection is more reduced.

Experiments on embryonic stem cells usage in medicine began in 1998, in the United States. This was the moment when the first technique to isolate and grow cells has become known in the world. Since the results showed that embryonic stem cells have the potential of providing potential cures and therapies for devastating diseases, which nowadays cannot be cured or even relieved, research in this domain has become much increased. The moment when President Barack Obama announced that the ban on federal funding offered to scientists in embryonic stem cells field has been lifted, the domain began growing amazingly. In 2009, the first embryonic stem cell treatment has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, in the United States. The intervention supposed helping a patient suffering from acute spinal cord injury. Soon, specialists also claimed that with embryonic stem cells based treatments diabetes could also be cured. In 2008, scientists announced that experiments on mice have shown that human embryonic stem cells can regulate blood sugar into the body.

Heart conditions can also be cured with the usage of stem cell treatments. Millions of people in the United States, but also all around the world are diagnosed with heart conditions every year. Injecting these cells into the heart will help in regenerating the damaged heart muscle, specialists in embryonic stem cell research believe. Other three conditions that could be treated with these types of treatments are Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, but also Lou Gehrig’s disease. Embryonic stem cells can offer cures when referring to lung diseases, arthritis and sickle cell anemia, too, specialists say. Research performed in this domain will also be able to lead to the repair of organ failure, which will make transplants of organs no longer necessarily.

In 1981, the embryonic stem cell research evolved. At the University of Cambridge, in the United Kingdom, two men from the Department of Genetics were working hard in embryonic stem cell research. Martin Evans and Matthew Kaufman developed a technique through which they cultured mouse embryos to obtain a larger cell number. Later, in America, at the Department of Anatomy from the University of California, Gail R. Martin, from San Francisco came up with the term of embryonic stem cell, used in the embryonic stem cell research. He published an article explaining the embryos can be cultured in vitro and their stem cells used for research. The discoveries did not stopped here, as most people imagine.

In 1998, an American had a breakthrough in the embryonic stem cell research. The team of James Thomson, of the University of Wisconsin Madison managed to develop a whole process in which human embryonic stem cells could be grown and isolated in cell culture. In present, the embryonic stem cell research is very important. More than this, it is vital, because the embryonic stem cell research may be a solution to stop all the diseases that people have. Of course, there were a few cases in which people’s lives were saved thanks to stem cells, but the work in the domain is far from over and the embryonic stem cell research is only in its early stage.

The population must be educated and for this. People will never understand the true importance of the embryonic stem cell research if they will not understand also the changes that embryonic stem cell research can make in the health domain. Many illnesses could be stopped and a lot of diseases cured, but until reaching that point, a lot of research is still needed. The embryonic stem cell research is vital, literally, for people who could be sentenced to death without it. Many sicknesses could found their cure if those working in the embryonic stem cell research would have funds to continue the investigations.

The embryonic stem cell research should not be an important topic only for doctors, but for all the population. Funds could be gathered easily if people would understand its importance. This is why the education is part of the process. The population needs to be educated in what regards the embryonic stem cell research. Many make horrible confusions and associate the embryonic stem cell research with abortion, continuing to spread lies about it without even realizing how serious this is. At some point, people should understand the incredible importance of the discoveries that can be made in this domain, but for this, they need to learn more about it.

Embryonic stem cell research has begun several years ago, so it’s not such a new field as we were tempted to think. It is true that the most important discoveries and tools were discovered lately as technology has advanced a lot. Many people consider embryos life in its early stage, so embryonic stem cell research is synonym for them with killing and not giving the chance to live. Although the phenomenon has been explained in many ways, proving that there is no murder, people still consider the process this way and don’t agree.

In countries where religion is very important, embryonic stem cell research is a very confusing and controversial topic, avoided and blamed at the same time. Nonetheless, the embryonic stem cell research is useful and one of the most amazing and important medical discoveries, giving to many people the possibility to find out a lot of things about the human body and the chance to recover. Although everything sounds very good, it is time for embryonic stem cell research scientists to prove that embryonic stem cell research can actually do something to improve the lives of so many people. It is a new field and in the future, new things will be discovered, so people’s chances to recover will increase very much.

For sick people, the embryonic stem cell research represents a new chance that they could have for life, it everything else fails. It is very important that the masses understand the major importance of the discoveries made in this domain. If the majority of the people in a country would support the embryonic stem cell research, they would surely gather funds or they would lobby for laws that support this kind of research. This is why those who are pro embryonic stem cell research are trying to make the best they can to promote it and to show support in their own way. Debating such a topic in a TV show with a great audience, like Grey’s Anatomy is, has a major importance.

Television can help a lot in cases like these and people may learn what really is embryonic stem cell research and what does it stand for. Many do not know exactly the purpose of the embryonic stem cell research and refuse to support it. Many believe all kind of rumors that are not true and that represent a threat for the continuation of embryonic stem cell research. The masses need to be educated in this matter and in such manner that they do not feel disturbed. Thanks to TV shows, like Grey’s Anatomy, people will easily understand the importance of embryonic stem cell research.

Scientists say that the laws and the funding stop them from developing and continuing embryonic stem cell research. Nevertheless, there are also problems such religious beliefs which also influence embryonic stem cell research. In those countries where religion is very important, embryonic stem cell research has less chances of developing. People are afraid even to think about embryonic stem cell research, considering this is a huge sin. It will mean a lot of work and efforts to solve these problems or maybe they will never have a solution. No matter what is claimed, embryonic stem cell research is an important step in medicine that will help a lot of people. 

It is not very well known when the first people will be cured, but the circumstances are great. There are programs that try to include people and scientists into this process, showing them how helpful this is and that there is nothing wrong about it. Science does not have to be a mystery, but something that people understand and know its benefits. There are many articles in the newspapers and on the Internet about embryonic stem cell research and many new programs have emerged. Scientists are decided to discover new things that will help humanity in the future, which is very useful and amazing. Although embryonic stem cell research is controversial, it can be helpful and people are very eager to see the results.

What it at stake when it comes to embryonic stem cell research, though? The opinions regarding this matter are also diverse. This is because those who are against embryonic stem cell research claim that pre-embryos are still human beings and even if they are not born, they still have a unique DNA and God inflicted them with a soul. Therefore, killing that embryo in the process of extracting stem cells that would help embryonic stem cell research means killing a human person, even if that person has not been born. Many people believe that pre-embryos are a form of human life that might have become a person later in pregnancy or at birth. As the embryo is killed before it becomes a person, embryonic stem cell research may be regarded as somewhat moral. Moreover, if pre-embyos would have be discarded anyway, then there is no crime.

When it comes to embryonic stem cell research, the basic lines are the following. If a pre-embryo is a person, then extracting stem cells may constitute first degree murder. If the pre-embryo is not a person, then extracting stem cells may be morally acceptable. It is as simple as that. It all depends on people’s beliefs and, let’s face it, level of education. Nevertheless, we still need to consider that embryonic stem cell research could cure numerous diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, cancers, genetic conditions, and many, many others. Not to mention that if the technology of induced pluripotent stem cells develops as expected, then it will eventually replace the need for embryonic stem cell research.

Although there have been some concerns on the embryonic stem cell research, which lead to controversial matters and situations, those interested still moved on to find out even more that can be done with the usage of the stem cells. The embryonic stem cell research proved that these cells can be a part of many treatments and that they can be the solution to many of the existing health problems today. Important contributions have been noted through the help of embryonic stem cell research. Clinical trials are used in order to prove the functionality and the purposes of this embryonic stem cell research. So far, the studies have shown impressive results in many cases, but in some the research still has to continue.

Embryonic stem cell research is an important part of the future changes of medicine. It is not something to be neglected, as for the results that have already been issued, there are many benefits that have surfaced and that could surface from this in the future. More and more people have become involved into the makings of the embryonic stem cell research and have brought their contribution to the studies carried out in the hope that, one day, all the major diseases of the world will be cured. Future developments are awaited by those who suffer from diseases and by those interested in modern medicine.

In some countries, the pharmaceutical companies offer a lot of support, that is why in the last years, the Japanese researchers had several projects, while the Americans barely had a few as the law that provides funds for embryonic stem cell research was vetoed more than one time in the last 6 years. Things should change and soon, because there are too many illnesses and treatment is needed. Many people do not understand how important the embryonic stem cell research is and are easily influenced by the church that always debates the ethical problems.

Although the ethical aspect of the embryonic stem cell research was discussed over and over again and the masses should have understood by now that this type of research does not imply the usage of embryos that developed in women’s wombs, most people are still against it. Right now, the medicine cannot evolve without the embryonic stem cell research. This type of research is huge and the discoveries made through the projects included in the embryonic stem cell research can save millions of lives. Those who are against should think again, as one day that may need a cure that could or could not be available for them.
