The Benefits of Stem Cell Research by Brandon Tantari

Stem Cells Found in every multicellular organism Divide during mitosis into specialized cell types produce more stem cells through self renewal process.

What is Stem Cell Research? Stem Cell Research is the study of biological stem cells derived from embryos and their use in medicine and treatment. President Obama signed bill that lifted the stem cell research ban on March 10, 2009 allowing federal taxpayer dollars to fund significantly broader research on embryonic stem cells.

Potential of Stem Cell Research promises to revolutionize medicine by bringing about new treatments and medications to numerous diseases and disorders. improve the lives of millions of people around the world living with diseases and disorders that could be treated with the knowledge obtained through stem cell research.

Diseases/Disorders that could be cured using stem cell research Diabetes Alzheimer’s Parkinson's disease Heart disease Lung disease Lou Gehrig's disease Arthritis Spinal cord injury Leukemia

Stem cells are the future of medicine They have the potential to cure a countless number of diseases and improve the lives of millions. The scientific breakthroughs we could make using stem cells could benefit us as a society.
