Genetically Modified Crops Medical Research
521 wordsFirstly I would like to say that gene technology is ethically wrong and certain laws should be made against it. With the use of gene technology, genetically modified food has been grown. This is not natural; its like adding something artificial into our once naturally grown crops. Medical tissue engineering is of recent research, and is appalling to see that this is being encouraged in the media because this is not a natural food source, it was been manipulated and modified. The aspect of gene t...

Infectious Diseases Animal Experiments
1,143 wordsFor the past 20 years, there has a been an on going heated debate on whether experiments on animals for the benefit of medical and scientific research is ethical. Whether it is or isn't, most people believe that some form of cost-benefit test should be performed to determine if the action is right. The costs include: animal pain, distress and death where the benefits include the collection of new knowledge or the development of new medical therapies for humans. Looking into these different aspec...

Stem Cell Immune System
393 wordsGeneric Heart Engineering To engineer a heart, the pathways to its formation through stem cells must first be discovered through one genome line that is as healthy as possible (i. e. no signs of an genetic disorders, especially related to oncogenes, no family history of heart problems). Then a process could be made to grow a heart in vitro through the use of the right cell signaling, transcription factors and hormones. After this process is perfected, the genome could be screened again for any d...
