Britain should be the world's number one center for genetic and stem cell research, building on our world leading regulatory regime in the area.

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.

The U.S. has the finest research scientists in the world, but we are falling far behind other countries, like South Korea and Singapore, that are moving forward with embryonic stem cell research.

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

We have a responsibility to promote stem cell research which could lead to treatments and cures for diseases affecting millions of Americans.

Stem cell research can revolutionize medicine, more than anything since antibiotics.

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.

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.

There are many alternatives to embryonic stem cell research, alternatives with great potential. We need to support these and oppose creating life for the sole purpose of destroying it.

Stem cells are probably going to be extremely useful.
