Citizen Link Interviews Dr. Clement Persaud; Champion for Life
"A week-old embryo, with approximately 160 cells, may be called a 'glob of tissue.' A single cell from that 'glob' can be sexed as a male or female; the 'glob' is immunologically and genotypically different from the mother, and is developing along the continuum of another human being. It is a miniature person with different capacities, and should be accorded the most fundamental right: the right to life with a future of value."
Pro Life microbiologist, Dr. Clement Persaud, is an expert on legislation regarding cloning and stem cell research, and recently spoke with Citizen Link about the increasing public awareness of adult stem cell research and development, which does not harm human embryos.
A regular speaker on "Biblical responses to bioethical issues," Dr. Persaud answered questions regarding embryonic vs. adult stem cells, and the worth of human embryos.
