 * 1) Gardiner, Harris. "Some Stem Cell Research Limits Lifted." __The New York Times__. 18 April. 2009. 15 May. 2009. < http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/18/health/18stem.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=Some%20Stem%20Cell%20Research
 * 1) Harris Gardiner, a journalist of the //New York Times//, gives an update on the current Stem Cell deadlock and how the Obama Administration is dealing with the issue. This is obviously a change in previous articles because the Bush Administration provided very limited funding for the research and stabilization of Stem Cell lines. The intended audience is those with diseases who may be treated with Stem Cells and other advocates of the their use. This is a well-researched topic as Harris provides many details on the current use of Stem Cells to help repair a patients spinal cord. There is very limited bias as the author clearly explains all sides to the debate and does not give any personal opinion.
 * 2) Pallarito, Karen. “Stem Cell Transplant ‘Very Encouraging’ For Type 1 Diabetes.” __CNN__. 15 April. 2009. 27 April. 2009. < http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/04/15/stem.cells.diabetes/index.html?iref=newssearch>.
 * 3) Karen Pallarito, a freelance journalist, gives important insight into the uses of stem cells by identifying one specific area of where they are of great use. This is an overview of the benefits of stem cells. The intended audience is those who have Type One Diabetes. The main purpose of this article to inform its readers of the benefits of stem cells and their use with the disease. A stem cell transplant allows some type one diabetic to survive without insulin shots. The work is logical, however it could be better research and more in-depth about the process. This is important to my thesis because it provides a specific case of when stem cells may be used.
 * 4) Park, Alice. "Cautious Optimism for the First Stem Cell Human Trial." __Time__. 24 Jan. 2009. 15 May. 2009. < http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1873825,00.html>.
 * 5) Alice park, a journalist, gives important insight to the new Obama Administration's initial actions regarding Stem Cell use. It is an overview of the topic and contains similar information to the other works listed here. It is also intended for an audience of more mature adults who understand the topic and have an opinion relating to Stem Cells. This article mainly addresses the current purpose of the FDA approval of Stem Cells, which is in order to determine how a body will react to their injection and whether or not the Immune System can adapt to them, or will reject them. The topic is suficiently covered, however could use more information on the actual treatment. This is important to my thesis because it shows how Stem Cells are moving forward.
