I support both embryonic stem cell research and adult stem cell research. I never hear anyone mentioning adult stem cell research, but I hear people talk about embryonic stem cell research all the time, which I think is kind of odd. The only problem with adult stem cell research v. embryonic stem cell research is that adult stem cells have more restrictions and they are harder to manipulate than embryonic stem cells.
I agree. I don't hear anyone talking about adult stem cell research, which is a little worrying. It's almost as if people won't consider the benefits of using adult stem cells, and I am sure there would be benefits, if only the effort were spent on researching them more intensely.
