Abstract: This article examines the ethical issues associated with human embryonic stem cell (hESC) research, including debates over whether such research is ethically justifiable. It reviews the basic science underlying hESC research and explores distinctions made between reproductive and nonreproductive (therapeutic) cloning, and different sources of embryos and stem cells, as well as their ethical implications. There is no consensus about many of the complex issues associated with hESC research, and debates are likely to continue as the research progresses. © 2008 Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Inc.
