Cloning for a Cure: Hope for Motor Neurone Disease

The transcript discusses the potential use of cloning and stem cell technology to treat motor neurone disease. Scientists plan to use genetic material to create an embryonic clone, hoping to replace damaged neurons. The process involves injecting genetic material into a human egg. While there are ethical concerns about using human embryos, the technique offers hope for a cure, potentially benefiting future patients.
