The first "test-tube baby", Louise Brown, was born almost 40years ago. Sperm from her father was combined with an egg cell fromher mother. The fertilized egg cell was then placed into themother's uterus for the period of gestation. At the time ofLouise's conception, many people were very concerned about theethics of scientists performing these in vitro fertilizations. Now,in vitro fertilization is quite common.
Today, scientists are working to regenerate organs. I highlyencourage you to check out this piece:http://www.npr.org/templates/story/stor ... d=18222824 It is amazing work! Since I heard of this research (2008), I havebeen following Dr. Taylor's work. You can see some of her recentdevelopments here:https://www.texasheart.org/research/reg ... -research/ .
Now my question is: Do you think that cloning organs orembryonic treatments for diseases will eventually be as commonplaceas in vitro fertilizations are now? What might influence your owndecision to support these technologies or those that research them?Defend your responses.
