The Importance Of Embryonic Stem Cell Research

In The 21st Century

When I think how much man and woman have discovered, conquered and created, I can't help but think of what else we can discover, conquer and create. We have come so far, think how much further we can go. Embryonic stem cell research is an outlet for the future of modern medicine. The field will revolutionize medicine and it must be properly funded in order to do so. Through research of stem cells we will gain a greater understanding of human development and hopefully find cures and treatments for some of the most debilitating conditions that plague man.

to the research of stem cells.
