Opposition Revision

New techniques are being developed. Skin cells are being turned into Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) that mimic embryonic cells. In addition, Adult, neonatal, cord blood or placental human stem cells, and animal stem cells are other sources that are not involved in the ethical debate. The use of embryonic stem cells may over shadow these alternative methods, resulting in the loss of research that may be as valuable. Why not use these methods? Government funding for alternative research on embryonic stem cells would be beneficial in the long run. By protecting Human Rights, these methods could be more ethical.
