World’s First Human Embryonic Stem Cell Therapy Clinical Trial

Let the revolution begin.

Neuroscience researchers and genetics researchers in the USA have started the world’s first human embryonic stem cell therapy clinical trial on humans. A patient from Atlanta suffered spinal cord and brain trauma that resulted in paralysis from the chest down and has now been injected with a potential cure developed from human embryonic stem cells obtained from a fertility clinic.

The human embryonic stem cell therapy trial has been approved by the FDA and also has used no federal funding. The embryos that were used from the fertility clinic would have been discarded had they not been used in the research.

This human embryonic stem cell clinical trial is sure to add more fuel to an already hotly debated scientific issue of using embryonic stem cells at all.
