title: Embryonic stem cell research and the moral status of human embryos.
abstract: The paper analyses whether the old problem concerning the moral status or value of human embryos is implicated in the moral evaluation of embryonic stem cell research. It briefly outlines the moral status debate and then proceeds to show that all current attempts to bypass the problem fail.
