Embryonic Stem Cell Research: A Debate

Two US Companies made history in 2010 when they got approval to start the first experiments using embryonic stem cells on humans suffering from spinal cord injuries and blindness.
Researchers say stem cells can transform into nearly any cell in the human body. Supporters of the research believe that will lead to cures for everything from Parkinson’s Disease to paralysis to heart disease.

Opponents say that when the cells transform, they could form tumors and lead to other problems.
This is an issue with controversy rooted in medicine, ethics, politics and religion.
Fox 29’s Mike Jerrick spoke to two men on opposite sides of the debate – Senator Arlen Spector and Princeton University professor Robert George.
