Abstract:The recent study of stem cells induced differentiation for gametes could be used in two aspects as follows:first,for an exploration of scientific activities,such as infertility,formation of gamete;second,for the promotion of human assisted reproductive technology.However,the development of this technology calls for full evaluation and assessment involving ethical,legal and social effects.On the basis of the core problem and principles,this article attempted to discuss the issues such as ethical domains of basic study and human reproductive research focusing on stem cells induced differentiation for gametes,and further integrated privacy protection,informed consent and process control.We hope all these considerations could provide references to the better understanding of stem cells research and decision-making in ethical practice.
