Legal Limitations of Researching and Using the Stem Cells
Legal Limitations of Researching and Using the Stem Cells

Summary/Abstract: The importance of research in view of using stem cells for scientific and medical purposes must be regulated in a clear and, to the degree possible, single manner, at European and world level. Beginning with this obvious necessity, this article attempts to review the relevant provisions in the domestic legislation, while supplying the required appreciations and criticism. In the end, it reaches the idea, also upon replying on some compared law elements, that not only some legislative modifications or adaptations are imposed, in connection to the normative acts in force, but particularly the creation of a complete and complex legislative framework. It must cover the existence of all practical situations and regulate the scientific research activity in this domain, without ignoring at any time the inviolability of human dignity and acknowledging the right of integrity of the person’s body and mind.
