It is also our view that there are no sound reasons for treating the early-stage human embryo or cloned human embryo as anything special, or as having moral status greater than human somatic cells in tissue culture. (wikiquote.org)
Stem cells from cord blood or adult tissues do not give rise to the same moral considerations as those derived from embryos or cloned embryos or aborted foetuses. (cmq.org.uk)
Genetic3
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) involves testing for specific genetic conditions prior to the implantation of an embryo in the uterine wall. (asu.edu)
The biotech industry wants it all kept quiet as they push products onto the market with unprecedented speed to recoup their billions of dollars in accumulated genetic research and investment costs. (jesus-is-savior.com)
Think of mice with sizable pieces of genetic code that originated from the human genome, used in cancer and pharmaceutical research, or pigs with a human heart, that are grown for medical applications. (demul.nl)
Science3
These animals are important in terms of their significance to science and the ethical issues that their creation raises. (wikiquote.org)
Recording and contextualizing the science of embryos, development, and reproduction. (asu.edu)
However, he soon turned his attention to animal science and basic research. (mathisfunforum.com)
Human6
The creation of an embryo by nuclear transfer is a human being whose right to continued life should be respected. (cmq.org.uk)
Secondly, widening the scope of research further establishes the human embryo as a mere commodity for use as a research animal and moves away from Dame Warnock's assertion that the embryo deserves special respect. (cmq.org.uk)
Most of the differences between Britain and other countries are due to the lowly status that is afforded the human embryos in this country. (cmq.org.uk)
Britain is almost isolated in Europe in its failure to afford the human embryo any meaningful status, as attested by the huge number of embryos produced and destroyed. (cmq.org.uk)
The research project is planning to put human genes into cows so that their milk is more like human breast milk. (jesus-is-savior.com)
Because human-animal combinations are among us again, and this time not as creations of mythological imagination, but as products of contemporary biotechnology, such as cybrids and chimeras. (demul.nl)
Transfer2
More than 100 nuclear transfer procedures could be required to produce one viable clone. (wikiquote.org)
is a British developmental biologist who was the first to use nuclear transfer of differentiated adult cells to generate a mammalian clone, a Finn Dorset sheep named Dolly, born in 1996. (mathisfunforum.com)
Development2
The principles of stem cell development and differentiation should be researched in animals. (cmq.org.uk)
The Edinburgh Mouse Atlas, also called the e-Mouse Atlas Project (EMAP), is an online resource comprised of the e-Mouse Atlas (EMA), a detailed digital model of mouse development, and the e-Mouse Atlas of Gene Expression (EMAGE), a database that identifies sites of gene expression in mouse embryos.

Attention1
Would issues relating to research on embryos benefit from more attention at international level? (cmq.org.uk)
Time2
What are the potential medical benefits of stem cell research 9 what is the most likely time scale for realising them? (cmq.org.uk)
If we stop using DDT and CFCs, nature may be able to undo most of the damage or even nuclear waste decays over time. (jesus-is-savior.com)
Produce1
Scientist Phil L'Huillier who is heading the project, say's the first two or three years will be spent putting transgenic embryos into cows and breeding from them to produce transgenic calves which will in turn breed to produce herds of up to 30 animals for milking. (jesus-is-savior.com)
Medical1
Duncan Davidson and Richard Baldock founded the project in 1992, and the Medical Research Council (MRC) in Edinburgh, United Kingdom, funds the project. (asu.edu)
Cells2
There is a range of different views world-wide on the acceptability of research on embryonic stem cells. (cmq.org.uk)
Some forms of stem cell research such as the use of cells from adults or cord blood, are not controversial. (cmq.org.uk)
