Paper Summary:

This paper explains the techniques of cloning, which build an identical genetic duplicate of a different cell, tissue or a living organism. The success of reproductive cloning in creating various animals, such as Dolly, the sheep is explored and the development of therapeutic human cloning by means of embryonic stem (ES) cells is examined. The Human Genome Project is highlighted.

Conclusion

From the Paper:

"Of late, a lot of options to transplantation through nucleus mode have been suggested. Some of these are (i) deriving stem cells out of dead embryos. However, some regard this method as similar to severing of organs from the persons who has died recently. (ii) Taking out stem cells through extracting the blastomeres from live embryos. Currently, this method is used for the testing of IVF embryos for abnormalities at the genetic and chromosomal level. However, long-term impacts of this removal on the health of the person have not been known."
