We deeply regret Sen. Frist`s endorsement of an embryonic stem cell research policy that would turn living human beings into commodities for exploitation. ... Treating living human embryos as mere fodder for experimentation crosses a vital ethical line an...

On human embryonic stem cell research: "I found that the cloning of human embryos will be used in the process and that, for me, I have an ethical problem with that. Why do I, as a taxpayer, have to fund something I believe is unethical?"
Mel Gibson
You cannot be against embryonic stem cell research and be intellectually and therefore morally consistent, if you`re not also against in vitro fertilization.
Ron Reagan
Well, there are two kinds of stem cells: adult stem cells, which you can get from any part of a grown body, and embryonic stem cells. These are the inner- core of days-old embryos that can develop into any kind of cell.
Ambesse Tolossa
We should be very cautious not to mislead the public that these two papers demonstrate that we no longer need to do research on human embryos or human embryonic stem cell lines,
Anna Miller
Under current federal policy on human embryonic stem cell research, only those stem cell lines derived before August 9, 2001 are eligible for federally funded research.
Tom Allen
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.
Amber Bacon
Through their work with fetal tissue, researchers hope to find ways to harness embryonic stem cells which have the ability to become any type of human cell and could provide new treatments for many illnesses.
Tom Allen
There are no bona fide treatments available for embryonic stem cells. There is nothing in the laboratory, and there is certainly nothing in the clinics available to patients.
Michael Burgess
The U.S. has the finest research scientists in the world, but we are falling far behind other countries, like South Korea and Singapore, that are moving forward with embryonic stem cell research.
Altaf Ladak
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.
Andreas Schurig
Some of the early embryonic stem cell passages were relatively aberration-free, at least using the technology we have access to, even at passage 30 or so, which would be unusual for most adult stem cells, ... over time, it appears that the majority of eve...

Scientists have stated that embryonic stem cells provide the best opportunity for devising unique treatments of these serious diseases since, unlike adult stem cells, they may be induced to develop into any type of cell.
Alberto Melloni
Sadly, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years.
Amber Bacon
Our Nation`s scientific research must adhere to the highest ethical standards. But it is important that we do embryonic stem cell research.
Alberto Melloni
Mr. Speaker, the scientific evidence is overwhelming that embryonic stem cells have great potential to regenerate specific types of human tissues, offering hope for millions of Americans suffering from debilitating diseases.
Alice Gilborn
Most of the scientific community believes that for the full potential of embryonic stem cell research to be reached, the number of cell lines readily available to scientists must increase.
Andre Heard
More important is the fact that embryonic stem cell research could lead to new treatments and cures for the many Americans afflicted with life-threatening and debilitating diseases.
Andre Heard
Laura Bush went on national television during the week of my father`s funeral and spoke out against embryonic stem cell research, pointing out that where Alzheimer`s is concerned, we don`t have proof that stem-cell treatment would be effective.
Patti Davis
If one could just simply understand how that process works, termed reprogramming, one might be able to directly turn adult cells into embryonic stem cells without an embryo or an egg.
Arun Sarin
I can`t stress enough that this technology is not ready for prime time right now. It is not a replacement for those techniques that we already have for derivation of embryonic stem cells.
Arun Sarin
Embryonic stem cell research is legal in America, and nothing in the administration`s current policy affects that legality; 400 lines are currently being used to conduct embryonic stem cell research, both in the private sector and by the Federal Governmen...
