Background

Stem cell research has been a hot topic in the United States since the first embryonic stem cell was singled out we learned of their true potential. These pluripotent cells can form into any cell as many times as they want. Scientists see them as potential cures and treatments of genetic diseases and spinal cord injuries. Now, people see this research as unethical and immoral including President George W. Bush who banned the funding of the research but President Obama has found a way around the law to fund the research.
