Stem Cell research started because doctors needed to find a way the regenerate cells in people with anemia and leukemia. Stem cells are from embryos that are made by in vitro which fertilizing outside of the womb. They are widely needed because they have the ability to develop into many different types of cells and they help with internal repair.
In the 1900s, they first tried to administer it by mouth which proved unsuccessful. So they started doing bone marrow transplants, which only worked on identical twins at first. Because your body knows that the transplant isn't part of your part so body so it rejects it.
In the 1998, James Thompson got cells from embryos in their early stages. The he developed the first embryonic cell lines. Then funding was banned by George Bush. But was later lifted by President Bill Clinton and ultimately banned again because it was a huge controversy. Because the use of babies.
It wasn’t until the 2000s that there was actually funding for stem cell research. I honestly have no problem with it. I think that it was a great idea because, it helps save lives and it isn’t hurting anyone. I think that if I had the chance in the future I would donate some of my eggs to stem cell research.
