LONDON -- British scientists warn that an impending government decision that may ban research to create human embryos from animal eggs will jeopardize finding a cure for diseases such as Alzheimer's and spinal muscular atrophy. Britain's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority, the country's independent regulator of fertility and embryo research, is set to announce on Thursday whether such procedures should be permitted. Similar research is currently ongoing in China and the United States.

Human embryonic stem cell (hESC) research has been touted for over a decade due to its potential to provide great improvements in healthcare, including finding cures for millions of people with debilitating and degenerative diseases. However, this research comes at a perceived moral price because it requires scientists to destroy embryos, the beginnings of human life. Newer scientific methods can be even more controversial because they involve creating embryos specifically for research purposes and mixing human and animal genes. Nations have divided sharply in their approaches toward allowing, funding, and regulating various aspects of hESC research. The United States takes a conservative approach, allowing moral concerns to drive much of its policy. The current framework in the United ...
