Today, millions of people around the world suffer from incurable diseases. Stem cells can help scientists find a cure for these diseases. By carefully studying stem cells, scientists can understand how an embryo is developed. This knowledge can help prevent birth defects in the future. Scientists would also be able to grow spinal cells from stem cells, which may have the ability to repair spinal cord damage in patients. Stem cells could also be used to grow nerve cells, possibly curing Parkinson’s disease, and cure Alzheimer’s disease. There are great promises in stem cells. Stem cell was legal in Brittan, but was stopped by George W. Bush.
