This page is dedicated strictly to stem cell research both pro and con.  Because there is so much information coming in on stem cell I thought by putting it on a separate page you would have the choice of either following it or not.  I feel that because of all the controversy over using or not using embryonic stem cells people should have the choice to read both sides of the story and make their own judgments.
