Doctor Palmer, I ran across this article about scientists extracting sten cells from cloned monkey embryos. I thought that this article was very fitting for this week since it shows where the two debate topics meet and how they can work together. This article is about scientists who used cloning to produce monkey embryos and then extracted stem cells from said embryos. This was the first time that such cells had been produced in any other animal besides a mouse. The article explains the advantages of using cloning to obtain stem cells and how this research may be useful for labs working on human eggs and human cells.http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/15/science/15primate.html?_r=1&ref=c...
