Stem Cell "major discovery" 

This amazing discovery can change medicine forever. "Stem cell 'major discovery' claimed" By James Gallagher. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-25917270.


Scientists in Japan have discovered you can make stem cells by dipping blood cells into acid. These sells can transform into any tissue. The human body is made up by cells each with their own function, However stem cells can become any type of cell. They have the power to regenerate the body.The discovery of this stem cell process lead to many discoveries in the same zone, For example skin cells may be reprogrammed genetically to become stem cells killing diseases. The experiment has been positive with mouse blood and its being tested on humans to advance the research. This can change the course of medicine forever. It can cure eye problems and even cancer.

I chose this because I lost someone very important to a life killing disease
and I wish that on no one. Having new technology in medicine is so important
because it will save so much people from a tragic ending because we all deserve
to live.
