Abstract

|
|
Human embryonic stem cell research does not always fall within research involving human subjects, but has features that make it different from other researches involving human derived materials, for it has closely connected with embryo research, which can lead to the reproductive cloning, destruction of human embryos and forms of researches that generate chimeric animals.
Therefore, it is of great importance to make the stem cell research overseen by another mechanism, which focuses exclusively on the stem cell research besides IRB.
This paper examines two major guidelines for stem cell research published in recent years: the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Guidelines for Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research (2007 Edition) and the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) Guidelines for the Conduct of Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research (2006). These two guidelines have provisions to the effect that additional oversight system is to be established.
Stem cell research should be conducted without threatening social safety. And the additional oversight system provided by these guidelines can be a better way to this elusive end.
