As research with human embryos and embryonic stem cells proceeds, the authors of this Policy Forum argue that all donors of biological materials should give informed consent, including oocyte and sperm donors. Informed consent is particularly important because of the diverse opinions and strong emotions that surround such research. Some gamete donors who are willing to help women and couples bear children may object to the use of their genetic materials for certain types of research.
随着对人类胚胎和胚胎干细胞的研究不断推进，本政策论坛的作者认为，所有生物材料捐赠者都应给予知情同意，包括卵母细胞和精子捐赠者。由于围绕此类研究存在多种观点和强烈情绪，知情同意尤为重要。一些愿意帮助女性和夫妇生育孩子的配子捐赠者可能会反对将其遗传材料用于某些类型的研究。
