The whole world is watching as Obama lifts restrictions on embryonic stem cell research. Therapy using stem cells have been tested on partially paralyzed rats and they were able to make the rats recover and walk again. This summer there going to start to use the same kind of embryonic stem cell therapy on humans. There main target will be people with spinal cord injuries. The reason why this is a global concern because physicians, scientists, doctors, and bio-technicians from all around the world are going to be watching in amazement to see what the results will be.

I think this is a great thing considering that there seems to be a lot of science behind stem cell research that says they will do magnificent things such as making paralyzed people able to walk again. I see it as the future is actually coming. The economy is bad and when I think about the future the economy should be booming. So when I think about the future considering health technology, I think of things getting better rather than worse which I believe stem cells will help do.
