Britain and Stem Cell Research

Posted in General on July 31st, 2006

BRITAIN is in position to become the world leader in stem-cell research, the government’s chief scientific adviser said yesterday.

Sir David King said there were economic and health benefits to making the UK the global hub of the controversial biomolecular research.

He said: “Certainly, the government will see this as an area for investment so we can see a return over the next ten or 20 years. There will also be a return in terms of health and therapies from this research.”

Sir David was speaking as Tony Blair prepared to use a four-day visit to California to highlight Britain’s cause in the field.

The Prime Minister will meet with executives from biotech companies today to promote a conference planned to take place in the UK in November.

His support for stem-cell research is in contrast with that of George Bush, the United States president, who this month vetoed a bill to broaden research. Mr Bush said a balance must be found between advancing medical research and “living up to our ethical responsibilities”.

Sir David said British scientists wanted to capitalise on a “series of successes” in stem-cell research, and that such research could help people with debilitating spinal injuries, brain damage or even heart defects.

Opponents of the research claim that it encourages the destruction of human embryos, although some techniques use cells from other sources, such as blood in umbilical cords.
