Feedbacks of presentation

The feedbacks of our group presentation on the class from my classmates are here.

 Positive points

*You gave a good explanation
*It's good that we asked classmates about what they know about cloning
*Who do you think the parent is - is a great question
*very concise and easy to understand well organized

Constructive Criticisms

*It would have been better to put percentages or absolute values of the results in the pie charts
*The video could have been longer
*The movie was a bit short
*There will be better if the video has a background music

Questions
*Who was the man in pink suits?
Her name is Nobuko Iwaki, and she is a member of the Diet! She looks like a man.

ANSWER

If a clone is created, who is the parent?

I thnk clones have no parents because parent's child should be given birth directly by its true parents. If clone has his parents who are not related to them, parents wouldn't feel an attachment to the clones and so probably they increasingly desert their child. In the first place, there is no need to create the clones. What they create the clones for?

ANSWER

Should patients be tested for untreatable conditions?

Abusolutely should not do, I think. Because patients should not tested though there is no reliability of the test and if there is any failure on the test, who'll take responsibility that? Scientists must consider these problems more. It's great to improve the sience technologies and our life, but we should not test people on a new technology.

ANSWER

5. Should research institutes profit from our DNA?

No. Because ethical issues will arise as experiments were done on fetal animals and human embryos. As DNA cloning on human cells seem possible for medical benefits, questions remain as to whether it is ethical to apply scientific experiments on embryos.

ANSWER

4. Whether is cloning technology against the human ethics?

Human should be born naturally, and should not be born artificially because there would happen lots of problems. For example, who is the parents of the clones, and who raise the clones? What are the clones created for? Probably they'll be used for an organ transplant and possibly they'll be made slaves. I think human should live naturally as human.

Answer

3. What do you think human is cloned?
I answer my question above. I think human cloning is not so good because we can't have our identities. However, I think it's not so bad to improve clone technology or medical technology related to cloning, such as ES cells, IPS cells, and donars etc.. We will be haunted by the human ethics if human cloning really is realized. And if human cloning is realized, they will have no parents who bring up them. So, clones will be accomodated in the fcilities for clones to grow up.

I found two yahoo groops. There are many sorts of people, for example scholars, professinals and so on. But recently this two site don't discuss their topic so frequently. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/microbiologytalk/
