Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 4 page paper arguing that embryonic stem cell research should be permitted on embryos created in fertility clinics not supported by federal funds. Though we should proceed cautiously and certainly not allow creation of embryos solely for research purposes, neither should we reject out of hand investigating the use of stem cells already available through fertility clinics for the treatment of disease that exists now. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Embryos available from fertility clinics. C. Controversial use. II. What They Are A. Undifferentiated progenitor cells. B. Promising for cancer patients. C. Does not produce specific organs. III. Ethical Dilemmas
A. Involves artificial creation of human embryos. B. Embryos exist, but are destroyed. IV. Conclusion A. Embryos already exist at fertility clinics. B. They will be destroyed if not selected
for implantation. C. Researchers should use all the resources available to them. Introduction Cloning of humans and animals has been in the movies
for years and more recently in the news. Cloning individual organs to be available for transplant, however, is a different matter. This is an aim of embryonic stem
cell research, and one that presents difficult ethical problems (The Stem-Cell Debate). Most embryos from which these stem cells are taken originate at fertility clinics in the form of
embryos created in vitro and not selected for implantation; others result from abortion activities. For the most part, embryos younger than 14 days are the most preferred for stem
cell research, making fertility clinics the most important source of embryos. The sticking point in embryonic stem cell research, of course, lies in
how the cells are obtained. Abortion clinics have been sources in the past, but it is much more convenient for researchers to create embryos in the lab, destroy them
before day 14 and then harvest the cells. The ethical dilemma presented by such action is clear. What They Are Stem cells
are the progenitor cells of all types of body cells, the undifferentiated forerunners of those cells that eventually will form organs, bone, blood and every other component of the human
