Nuclear Transplantation, Embryonic Stem Cells and the potential for Cell Therapy

This article goes in depth about the ins and outs of cloning. How to initially transfer as they call it but to clone an adult donor cell into an actual human adult clone but during that process there are stages where clones don't survive. The initial stage of implantation, abnormalities for the ones that make it to birth and what they call inadequate reprogramming are all reasons why most clones don't make it to adulthood. Embryonic stem cells are used for tissue replacement treatments or therapies. With cloning there are way too many issues that comes from it and not enough reward. The success rate of cloning are so much lower than the repeated success rate and use of embryonic stem cells that I would say that it would be the better option between the two. Although there are pros and cons to both I think cloning has a long way to go or maybe it should just be left well enough alone. That's up or the scientists to decide though. 

I think that stem cell research today has came a long way and is a great way to treat many different diseases and also a great way to still research more about their full potential.
