DeleteWow, I'd heard of stem cell research, but I had no idea what it actually was,and honestly I'm not really sure what to think about it. On one side I can definitely see the benefits, since I noticed it can help cure leukemia, which my great aunt has, but on the other side there's the whole ethical thing about whether the baby is actually alive, so I'm kind of torn. I really did actually learn a lot though and I thought it was really relatable as well.
