A wider decision on embryonic stem cells expected by President Obama next week but let's Begin with the news of the day and ABC's John McKenzie.These wondrous all purpose embryonic stem cells . The stills which looks so promising in the laboratory will now finally be used to treat people. This is the first opportunity to really see how these cells perform can we make a difference for people with all that we've learned over the last ten years. This first clinical trial -- small eight to ten people not get selected who have severe spinal cord injuries. The embryonic stem cell therapy to be administered within fourteen days of the injury. This first test is only designed to see if the cells arewould be -- Definite victory. A clinical success would also -- testing embryonic stem cells against blindness Parkinson's disease and type one diabetes. And this research may soon received much more rapidly. President Obama as early as next week is expected to reverse restrictions imposed by President Bush and allow federal funding of embryonic stem cell research.

And for medical research advocate such as Nancy Reagan who says the research could help those with alzheimer's. France has presented us with a -- called stem cell research . Which may provide our scientists with many answers. I just don't see how we can turn our backs on this.

expected to announce he will support federal funding for limited research on stem cells derived from human embryos. That would be a marked change from his campaign position in the campaign he was on record firmly opposing federal funding for stem cell research . That involves destroying -- living human embryo. Stem cells hold a lot of promise for medical research scientists say they can potentially manipulate these cells. To be almost anything an attackdifferent conclusions. Many people are finding that the more they know about stem cell research the less certain they are about the right ethical and moral conclusions. My administration must decide whether to allow federal funds. Your tax dollars to be used for scientific research on stem cells derived from human embryos. Large number of these embryos already exist. They -- the product of a process called in vitro fertilization.should -- all of us to think through these issues very carefully. Embryonic stem cell research is at the leading edge of a series of moral hazards. Initial stem cell researcher was at first reluctant to Begin its research. Fearing it might be used for human cloning. Scientists have already cloned -- sheep. Researchers are telling us -- next step could be to clone human beings create individual. Designer stem cells essentially to grow another you. To be available in case you need another heart or lung or liver. I strongly oppose human cloning. As do most Americans. We recoil at the idea of growing human beings for spare body parts or creating life for our convenience. And while we must devote enormous energy to conquering disease. It is equally important that we pay attention to the moral concerns raised by the new frontier. Of human embryo stem cell research . Even the most noble ends do not justify any means.

When you talk to me last night it was just like this calm came over me in the race to perfect what's called regenerative medicine. Stem cell therapy for animals is ahead of treatment in humans because it's not so strictly regulated. It's not experimental it's here. And while debate rages over the ethics of embryonic stem cell research doctors have made stunning progress with what are called adult stem cells . Recovered in this case from body fat. They're less powerful than embryonic cells but they don't require the destruction of an embryo. There are no side effects and no problems with rejection because the patient is also the cells don't work. Kind of -- back to our younger age or younger stage and we were however -- phase.
