  3. PROS • Pros Stem cell research can potentially help treating a range of medical problems. It could lead humanity closer to better treat and possibly cure a number of diseases: • Parkinson’s Disease • Alzheimer’s Disease • Heart Diseases, Stroke and Diabetes (Type 1) • Birth Defects • Spinal Cord Injuries • Replace or Repair Damaged Organs • Reduced Risk of Transplantation (You could possibly get a copy of your own heart in a heart-transplantation in the future • Stem cells may play a major role in cancer • Better treatment of these diseases could also give significant social benefits for individuals and economic gains for society • Read more: http://www.experiment-resources.com/stem-cell-pros-and-cons.html#ixzz13lrf0etv
