In the article it revels that they discovered that "embryonic stem cells express large proportions of their genome ( Hebrew University,2008)" by this they have discovered that tissues have specific genes. It is believed that because of this specific gene sequencing it unlocks their secrets to how they function and develop. But once this is gone the ability to understand goes with it. But at that point embryonic stells stand by attentively waiting to transform into what ever tissue the body calls on for it's need.

John B. Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka have been recognised for discovering that embryonic stem cells can change into any tissue types in the human body and how they develop. Because of their studies they changed mature cells into reprogramming and becoming pluripotent stem cells. Because of these discoveries scientist changed there whole out look on disease study and new methods for diagnosing and developing cures medicine etc.

Some of the issues I have related to my webtext is that although I do know a lot about computers I am not computer savy. I have had a few issues when it comes to researching some of my subject material in google scholars only because some of them want you to purchase the material prior to reading the whole piece. Another issue that I have encountered is the way to word specific issues without becoming too repetitive or boring to say the least. I find that some of my writing may be below that of scholorly at least this is my own personal opinion as far as how I would like the reader to understand and get the importance of my work. It has become hard to guide my threw the understanding of the fonts, them change and how to make the lay out how I would like it. I recently have seeked helped for this and have somewhat of a better understanding now. In my disscussion posts for this class they seem to be very helpful in relating to my webtext and be used as examples of work that needed to be placed the web text. I enjoy the writhing journals so far because it helps with gathering ideas on topics and different ideas. I am over coming these issues by going to the wring lab and emailing peers to proof read and rereading my material as often as possible.

Stem cells have several different applications in basic research, drug discovery, and cell therapy. In basic research applications stem cells improve the ability to screen for side effects in many different drugs. Because of the use of stem cells at the beginning of the screenings of drugs there will be a lesser over head cost as well as the ability to scrap drugs that are extremely harmful or fatal. Because under current government standards animals are used to take the drugs and because of this the outcomes are different slightly because humans are made up of different cells and organelles the side effects on animals may not have none at all opposed to people. Because stem cells can regenerate and create new tissues the ability to create different organs to use to test on such as the heart or liver because of the harmful effects it had on individuals when they are administered powerful drugs. This would take medical science and drug researchers to a safer drug administered program for humans. This would mean that if the cells had high toxicity of drugs then they would not be available for clinical trials and the patients who are receiving them would go through fewer side effects. This would mean a cure possibly for tumors in embryonic stem cell research. Companies would be able to manufacture drugs that would be made for each independent trial instead of groups and finding out that fatal side effects occurred because of the risks to the patients.
