During the last six decades, the cloning of a mammal was only possible in the imagination of the scientific community. ( Cloning Timeline Hello Dolly! Out of the blue, Ian Wilmut, a researcher from the Roslin Institute in Scotland, announced that his team had successfully cloned a lamb from an adult cell. The next day, the Pope denounced the discovery as a "lack of respect for life". The scientific community hailed the discovery as a break through for mankind. YOUR TASK View Role Call Sec. 302.

Supporters of the change say it could help scientists find cures for a range of diseases that are presently untreatable. But the decision has also raised ethical concerns about how the sanctity of life will be affected. Just because we can do something does not mean we have to Dr Liam Fox The British Government wanted to change the rules to allow stem cells to be taken from embryos at a very early stage of development. Researchers believe these embryonic cells will revolutionise the treatment of degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, particularly when the cells are obtained using the cloning technology that produced Dolly the sheep.

Recommendations of the Commission Appendix A. Glossary B. List of Speakers C. List of Commissioned Papers June 9, 1997 The President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: On February 24, 1997, in the wake of the announcement that scientists in Scotland apparently had succeeded in cloning an adult sheep, you asked the National Bioethics Advisory Commission to review the legal and ethical issues associated with the use of this technology and to report back within ninety days with recommendations. A week later you instructed the heads of executive departments and agencies that "no federal funds shall be allocated for cloning of human beings" thereby ensuring that precipitous steps would not be taken while the Commission was studying the subject. In this short interval, we have made every effort to consult with ethicists, theologians, scientists, physicians, and other citizens with interests and concerns in this area. Moreover, we have invited inputs for the Commission's consideration from as broad a cross-section of the community as time allowed. Further, recognizing that science and medicine are international activities with outstanding investigators and facilities in many nations, we have attempted to review relevant policies and proposals with respect to human cloning in other countries. However, we do not view it as essential to follow others in this area unless we find their proposals compelling, since we have different political and cultural traditions.

Vatican Statement on Cloned Human Embryo Bishop Gregory Statement on Cloned Human Embryo On Feb. 27, 2003, the U.S. House of Representatives voted for the second time to ban all human cloning. The act prohibits people from knowingly attempting to perform human cloning or participating in such a procedure by shipping or receiving an embryo produced from human cloning, whether the cloned embryo is to be used for reproduction or research. A bill to allow cloning for research but ban it for reproduction failed the same day in a 231-174 vote. The U.S. bishops' pro-life spokeswoman praised the 241-155 vote to pass the Human Cloning Prohibition Act.

By Elizabeth Cohen and MIriam Falco CNN Medical Unit ATLANTA (CNN) A controversial group claims to be well on its way to creating the first human clone, CNN has learned. Clonaid, which operates a secret lab outside the United States, said Monday it had created cloned human embryos before Advanced Cell Technology, the Massachusetts lab that announced Sunday it had created embryos through cloning. Clonaid, unlike Advanced Cell Technology, wants to use its embryos to impregnate a woman and produce a clone. Advanced Cell Technology said it wants to keep its embryos at the microscopic stage and use them only in the production of medical treatments. CNN could not confirm Clonaid's claims since the group has not published its work.

var loc = "../../../"; Silver is a Professor of Genetics at Princeton University where his laboratory is attempting to identify genes that influence personality and behavior. You predicted, I think two years ago, that human cloning would be here with us, within two years. I don't think I said that ... I predicted that human cloning would be with us in 10 years and I still believe that is the case, because there is a demand among a small number of people for this technology to have babies. It's being driven by the marketplace. I think that, ethically, one should not use this technology until they are convinced that it is safe and efficient, shown with the use of animals. But I don't think that physicians around the world are going to wait for the confirmation that it's safe and efficient in animals. The best example I can give you why physicians are not going to wait as they should is with ICSI, an intracytoplasmic sperm injection. This was a new technology developed in the early 1990s to overcome severe infertility and physicians did not wait to prove that it wasn't going to cause birth defects before they embraced it wholly across the country. We can use that history to understand how cloning is going to go. I'm not advocating the use of cloning in this way. I think it is wrong, but it's going to happen. Can you explain simply what cloning is, because [some] people think that it's the creation of an adult copy.
