Continuing advances in stem cell medicine will change all of our lives for the better.

Stem cell research holds out the promise of finding cures and treatments for a wide range of diseases.

Without a doubt, stem cell research will lead to the dramatic improvement in the human condition and will benefit millions of people.

Stem cells are probably going to be extremely useful.

More important is the fact that embryonic stem cell research could lead to new treatments and cures for the many Americans afflicted with life-threatening and debilitating diseases.

We need stem-cell research, no question about it. It is absolutely crucial for moving our medical science forward. We are trying to harness an untapped source of energy that can provide cures and possibly even prevent disease and suffering.

In Britain, like most of the developed world, stem-cell research is regarded as a great opportunity. America will be left behind if it doesn't change policy.

Stem cells have the potential to be used to treat and better understand some of the world's most deadly and disabling diseases.

Stem cell research is the key to developing cures for degenerative conditions like Parkinson's and motor neuron disease from which I and many others suffer. The fact that the cells may come from embryos is not an objection, because the embryos are going to die anyway.

We have a lot to gain through furthering stem cell research, but medical breakthroughs should be fundamentally about saving, not destroying, human life. Therefore, I support stem cell research that does not destroy the embryo.
