Stem Cells/CloningA New Direction for Stem Cell ResearchBy Fazale R. Rana Linda’s daughter has heart disease, Sylvia’s husband Alzheimer’s. Joe’s neighbor has Parkinson’s, Jesse’s nephew is paralyzed. All of these people long for medical research to develop cures for debilitating disease and injuries. Advance Holds Potential To Resolve Cloning's Ethical ChallengesBy Fazale (Fuz) Rana, Ph.D.
Clonaid's claim to have produced the first human clones propelled the ethical debate about... Book Reviews: Unmasking MisconceptionsReviewed by Fazale ("Fuz") Rana, Ph.D. The Human Genome Project (HGP) and affiliated technologies, such as cloning and stem cell research, elicit both confusion and concern. Advances in biotechnology may promise cures for many horrible diseases, but they also seemingly place scientists in the position to play God. Bringing Stem Cell Research Into FocusBy Fazale (Fuz) R. Rana, Ph.D. Even though they can't be seen without a microscope, embryonic stem cells are in full view of the public's eye. This interest in stem cell research has generated a number of radio interviews for me over the last year, in many instances on secular radio stations. Embryonic-Like Stem Cells from Adults CellsPosted by Fazale ‘Fuz’ Rana, Ph.D. Breakthrough May Revolutionize Stem Cell ResearchGNINOLC: We Have It All Backwardsby Fazale Rana, Ph.D. If I cloned myself would I be my clone's father or brother? Would a clone have its own identity?Questions like these elicit images of a bizarre and frightening future that prompt many bioethicists and scientists to call for a ban on human reproductive cloning. As a result, they condemn the efforts of renegade organizations like Clonaid, founded by the Raelians, a UFO cult. They also express concern about the work of legitimate reproductive scientists, like Panayiotis Zavos, who actively pursue cloning as a form of reproductive therapy. Pig Organs May One Day Save Human LivesPosted by Fazale 'Fuz' Rana, Ph.D. Xenotransplantation: Another Alternative to Embryonic Stem Cell Research TO CLONE OR NOT TO CLONE?By Hugh Ross, Ph.D. A cloud of moral confusion seems to surround recent advances in cloning research. When British zoologists announced Dolly the sheep, the first mammal successfully cloned from an adult cell, my phone became extra busy. Secular media spokesmen wanted my comments on this development, which they assumed Christians would view as evil, perhaps on a par with abortion and euthanasia. They made clear their expectation that I, as an evangelical scientist, would oppose any and all cloning experiments. Stem Cells/CloningStem Cells/Cloning |
