  2. I am just glad that this country is finally allowing some kind of clinical research with stem cells. The U.S. will definitely fall behind when we don't allow any kind of studies on things such as stem cells simply because we don't understand them. I think it is simply irresponsible when people ban studies on things they are ignorant to without realizing its true potential to benefit society. Allowing the clinical research is a big step for stem cell research...maybe some day, congress will allow research and restore federal funding for stem cells.

  3. After each successful treatment, I think the country will be a step closer to being open to stem cell treatment and experimentation. Maybe people will finally realize the implications and potentials of this research.
