Germ-Line Gene Editing And Congressional Reaction In Context: Learning From Almost 50 Years Of Congressional Reactions To Biomedical Breakthroughs, Russell A. Spivak, J.D., I. Glenn Cohen, J.D., Eli Y. Adashi, M.D., M.S.

Journal of Law and Health

On December 18, 2015, President Obama signed into law a policy rider forestalling the therapeutic modification of the human germ line. The rider, motivated by the science’s potential unethical ends, is only the most recent instance in which the legislature cut short the ongoing national conversation on the acceptability of a developing science. This essay offers historical perspective on what bills were proposed and passed surrounding four other then-developing scientific breakthroughs—Recombinant DNA, in vitro fertilization, Cloning, Stem Cells—to better analyze how Congress is, and should, regulate this exciting and promising science.

University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review

Rapid expansion of technology in medicine over the last few decades has both enhanced our lives and complicated our laws. For example, thanks to advances in science and medicine, couples who were previously unable to reproduce are now able to do so with the help of donors, medical personnel, and a host of other middlemen facilitating the process. The growth of medical technology has also lead to the advent of using human eggs for medical research. However, despite competing for eggs from a small pool of willing donors, there is a disparity in the law between the treatment of human …

Lethal Experimentation On Human Beings: Roe's Effect On Bioethics, William L. Saunders, Jr.

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Beginning with the assumption that human life begins at conception, this article explores the problematic terrain accompanying embryonic stem cell research and human cloning. "Lethal Experimentation on Human Beings," as enumerated in the article's title, refers to experimentation on and the removal of stem cells from human embryos, both of which "kill" a human being. The article warns that the holding in Roe v. Wade, which recognizes only a qualified government interest in unborn life, has obscured a pressing need for proponents of embryonic stem cell research to prove why society's interest in this research outweighs the rights of the …

International Response To Dolly: Will Scientific Freedom Get Sheared , Melissa K. Cantrell

Journal of Law and Health

This Comment will discuss the current threat to scientific freedom posed by absolute bans on human cloning. Parts II and III discuss the response of the United States and the international community to Dolly. Part IV discusses the legal position of scientific freedom in the U.S. and abroad. Finally, Part V will posit that a total ban on human cloning infringes on the freedom of scientific inquiry, and endangers the public by encouraging the establishment of black market cloning clinics.

Proposing A Treaty On The Prevention Of International Corrupt Payments: Cloning The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Is Not The Answer, Stephen Muffler

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

The taking of a bribe or gratuity, should be punished with as severe penalties as the defrauding of the State.

- William Penn'

If all statesmen shared this ideology, there would be no need for this article. However, a glance at current business journals and news agencies shows the great necessity to address global corrupt practices in today's transnational business environment.
