Abstract

This article discusses the legal and policy implications of the creation of cytoplasmic hybrid embryos for stem cell derivation research in Canada. Drawing on recent debates in the United Kingdom over the legal and ethical propriety of this research technique, and consequent judicial reflection and legislative developments on the issue, the authors examine the legal status of this research in Canada, provide a critical analysis of arguments for and against conducting cytoplasmic hybrid research, and proffer recommendations for future Canadian policy action.
