This is something that I have been thinking about lately. I wanted to address it from a biological view, not a political one. Stem cell research is very contraversial, not only in the political world, but the biological one as well. I was curious as to what everyone here had to say about it and/or what questions people have. I know I certainly have some:
What are some of the benefits to stem cell research?
What have people discovered so far?
Where do the stem cells come from?
Could we use the stem cells from aborted pregnancies for research?
What kind of diseases could benefit from this kind of research? Could they all benefit?
There are others, but that should get everyone started. As far as the poll goes, nothing in it is meant to offend or hurt anyone's feelings. So please take it with a grain of salt. Its just to get an idea of how the scientific community feels about stem cell research.
I would just like to request that everyone respect everyone elses' opinions even if you don't agree with them. Everyone who reads or posts in this thread has a valid opinion in one way or another. Just so everyone knows.
Alright, I'll leave you to talk amounst yourselves now.
