A lot of new discoveries and technology is being made by research in the medical field using biotechnology. Many of the current research happening is dealing with stem cells. These cells are very remarkable, they have the potential to develop into many different cell types and can reproduce very rapidly. This could help produce new cells, tissues, even copies of organs to help people who need them. People who have had strokes, burns, weak organs, diabetes and other diseases can receive replacement cells and tissues. New vaccines and drugs are also being made and new ways to determine genetic origins of diseases.
