Australia is currently well placed to contribute to the global growth of human stem cell research. However, as the science has progressed, authorities have had to deal with the ongoing challenges of regulating such a fast moving field of scientific endeavour. Australia's past and current approach to regulating the use of embryos in human embryonic stem cell research provides an insight into how Australia may continue to adapt to future regulatory challenges presented by human stem cell research. In the broader context, a number of issues have been identified that may impact upon the success of future human stem cell research in Australia.
澳大利亚目前在推动全球人类干细胞研究发展方面具备良好条件。然而,随着科学的进步,当局不得不应对监管这一快速发展的科研领域所带来的持续挑战。澳大利亚过去和当前对人类胚胎干细胞研究中胚胎使用的监管方式,为了解澳大利亚如何继续适应人类干细胞研究未来提出的监管挑战提供了思路。在更广泛的背景下,已经发现了一些可能影响澳大利亚未来人类干细胞研究成功的问题。
