for the Treatment of Non-Responsive Leukemia: A Research Proposal 11/2010 For more information on using this
paper properly! The focus on stem cell research for use in the treatment of a variety of conditions, including leukemia that has been unresponsive to traditional treatments, has led to
emerging research about the use of sibling donation, including the use of "savior" siblings. Increasingly, families have considered the creation of donor children, infants who are created through in-vitro
fertilization and selected to be matches for their ill siblings. The focus on this kind of option has led to growing information about the value of genetically compatible
donors and the impacts for the successful treatment of diseases like leukemia. Study Background and Purpose The focus on stem cell research in recent years has led to the
need for effective research into the treatment of a variety of childhood illnesses and the best methods for securing both stem cell and bone marrow donors. Because stem cells
or bone marrow from a blood relative who is a match provides better curative properties, many families have focused on the use of reproduction as a means of creating stem
cells necessary for the treatment of a loved one (Sheldon & Wilkinson 2003, p. 533). Stem cells are cells that are
not fully developed, that are the foundation for the development of other cells. Stem cells essentially wait for a genetic signal to determine what type of cell they will
