Brisith medical experts support human cloning

Categories: Diet & Weight Loss

This past weekend, British medical experts again pressed for scientific experiments involving human cloning based on the potential it has to benefit science and medicine.

Human-animal embryos to be used in such cloning, however, never be used as an implant into a woman or animal, said the scientists. Specifically, these scientists were speaking of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) that involves removing the nucleus from an egg cell and replacing it with the nucleus of a cell from the animal to be cloned.

The human cloning debate, however it can be defined and described, is far from over, as scientists and religious parties clash and discuss (and clash and discuss). Right now, SCNT is legal in the U.S. and Britain. Should it remain that way?
