Embryos5
According to cloning specialist and physiologist George Seidel of Colorado State University, cloning a human being would not be difficult if many people donated their eggs or offered their wombs for implantation of clone embryos. (wikipedia.org)
Embryonic stem cells come from human embryos that are three to five days old. (healthline.com)
Advances in the biotechnology industry have increased scientists' understanding of the human genome and enhanced their ability to genetically modify eggs, sperm, and human embryos. (nyu.edu)
[10] While one can consequently interpret Myriad in a way that limits the scope of the Act, it leaves open the question of the patentability of modified human gametes and embryos and the altered or synthetic gene sequencing which could potentially be encompassed within those gametes and embryos. (nyu.edu)
Once reproductive, juveniles produced fewer embryos and were less likely to release larvae than both young and mature adults. (edu.au)
Embryo2
A biotechnology company called Advanced Cell Technology had cloned human embryo cells for medical purposes, and its CEO Michael D. West said that the directions for cloning a human being were available in published scientific literature. (wikipedia.org)

Moreover, in Myriad Genetics , the Supreme Court found that an identical provision was inapplicable in a discussion on real and synthetic human genes, noting that the "Act does not even mention genes, much less isolated DNA. (nyu.edu)

On June 15, 1998, Brigitte Boisselier said the headquarters of Clonaid was located in Las Vegas and that Clonaid did not have enough funds for human cloning research. (wikipedia.org)
Lejeune's vision for his research was to develop treatments (people with Down syndrome often have myriad medical problems) to improve lives, not end them. (cbc-network.org)
While he acknowledged the ethical and moral difference dividing people in these stem cell debates, he could have pointed to the mounting evidence that embryonic stem cell research has not only moral problems but is not necessary if we are serious about cures and treatments for sick patients. (cbc-network.org)
The Center for Bioethics and Culture Network rejects the President's decision and will continue in our efforts toward advancing ethical research which provides cures for people but never at the demise of early human life. (cbc-network.org)
Everyday we read and hear about the constant onslaught of controversial medical issues, e.g., euthanasia, physician-assisted suicide, test-tube babies, cloning and stem cell research, creating monsters in the lab, etc. - it is all coming down very fast! (callifeadvocates.org)
Diagnosis2
Precision medicine diagnostic assays, aimed at improving the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of epigenetic abnormalities that cover a wide range of serious and life-threatening illnesses including dementias. (nih.gov)
Taking the long view reveals some of the trade-offs in trying to personalize diagnosis and treatment-and suggests that truly personalized medicine will involve not only technological advance, but also moral choices. (scienceblog.com)
Ecosystems2
One of the major focus points in this debate is the inherent problem of genetic engineering in regard to risk, uncertainty and unpredictability of its effects on natural ecosystems and human health. (nzlii.org)
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued its latest report (the Report), dealing with the effects on ecosystems, biodiversity, and human societies. (otoom.net)

Founded in 1997, it has philosophical ties with the UFO religion Raëlism, which sees cloning as the first step in achieving immortality. (wikipedia.org)
Advances1
Experts knowledgeable of the scientific advances in the field have noted that human reproductive chemistry is better understood than that of most animals. (wikipedia.org)
Health1
As a male physician practicing in childbirth and female reproductive health (man-midwife), Smellie developed and taught procedures to treat breech fetuses, which occur when a fetus fails to rotate its head towards the birth canal during delivery. (asu.edu)
People3
Surrounded by those who had long rejected the Bush policy as "anti-science", the President stated his order would lift that restriction and allow the U.S. to lead the world in scientific discovery, which he hoped would possibly, someday, maybe not in our lifetime, lead to cures for sick people. (cbc-network.org)
The process has been rife with delay, people caught within human rights complaints usually feel like they're lost in some kind of Kafkaesque nightmare. (lifesitenews.com)
But I am not optimistic in this regard as the argument takes advantage of a slippery slope which has been established through all sorts of human enhancement procedures which people have voluntarily adopted. (blogspot.com)
Scientists1
Mainstream scientists said it was unlikely that Clonaid would be able to clone anything in the near future. (wikipedia.org)
Molecular3
Lee Silver, a molecular biologist from Princeton University, noted the advantages that Raëlians had, as a pro-cloning religious group, in finding willing surrogates. (wikipedia.org)
Underlying contemporary, genomic personalized medicine are assumptions that, first, molecular medicine operates on a level that unites us all (indeed, all life), and thus it is the best-even the true-way to explore and describe human individuality. (scienceblog.com)
And second, that understanding human individuality on a molecular level will lead willy-nilly to better care and a less alienating medical experience for patients. (scienceblog.com)
Early2
To expose W. subatra to variable stress, and assess their growth and reproduction, I applied stress (1) at different times within a single life-history stage (early reproductive maturity), (2) that varied in duration at different life-history stages (juvenile, young adult or mature adult), and (3) that differed in duration and frequency for adults at two field locations. (edu.au)
The theory goes that when early, undetected cheats human-kind first realized that the mixture of water, natural yeast and wild grass grain produced such a powerful brew they settled down in order to cultivate those grasses, developing into modern wheat and barley. (biofrontierlab.com)
Cells3
However, in recent years, there has been controversy surrounding the way human embryonic stem cells are obtained. (healthline.com)

Cost3
On December 19, 1998, a New Scientist article said the cost of Clonaid cloning services would be $200,000, much lower than the $2.3 million that researchers at Texas A&M University planned to use for cloning a dog named Missy. (wikipedia.org)
Many are concerned about cost (fertility treatment can cost $10,000 per cycle, and many couples need multiple cycles to succeed), but their overriding concern is usually to end the ordeal as quickly as possible. (americamagazine.org)
By treatment, infected calls are cost data, not I stand it! (foodbabble.com)

Gene2
Every gene in the human body is encoded as deoxyribonucleic acid ("DNA"), and Myriad Genetics confronted the issue of whether a naturally occurring segment of DNA was eligible for patent. (nyu.edu)
For this reason, they thought that a higher rate of success was possible in human cloning compared with animal cloning. (wikipedia.org)
They cranked up their reproductive rate to compensate for increased mortality. (rifters.com)
