Medical Credibility Crisis

It is critical that all of us are aware of the credibility crisis that currently exists between the medical community and patients. During the unprecedented last 2.5 years, populations around the world have been repeatedly exposed to a new vaccine technology (mRNA) which did not complete long-term standard safety and efficacy research before it was brought to public use. Generally speaking, in times of crisis such as a pandemic, people trust the medical experts. In …

Pfizer, FDA Lose Bid to Further Delay Release of COVID Vaccine Safety Data

Thankfully, a federal judge rejected the request for the delay in data release due to a case which originated from a denied FOIA filing by the Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency. Perhaps coincidently, after this court decision, Pfizer announced a postponement in their application for vaccine approval for young children. Read more here:

CRISPR Causes Mutations that are Passed on to Offspring

It is 2022, and even with the explosion of medical research over the last decade using CRISPR gene editing, the unwanted and off-target mutations caused by the game-changing tool have not been controlled. Furthermore, studies consistently find that these mutations are directly inherited by any offspring produced. Indeed, CRISPR has facilitated great strides in curing single-genome diseases, such as sickle-cell anemia. But these are cases where adults were treated, and embryos/germ cells (eggs and sperm) …

IVG: Making Babies from Skin Cells

In Vitro Gametogenesis (IVG) involves creating human embryos without the use of eggs or sperm…from adult skin cells. When combined with gene editing (sometimes using DNA from an outside party), this technique will produce and grow “designer babies”, paving the way for any individual to become a parent. IVG has already produced successful outcomes, and fine tuning is being aggressively pursued. Just as in IVF, scores of created embryos are destroyed in the process. Once …

Gene Edited Pig Heart Successfully Transplanted

In a ground-breaking first, researchers and surgeons at the University of Maryland Medical Center have successfully transplanted a gene-edited pig heart into a dying man. For the heart to not be rejected once transplanted, 10 separate genes were deleted or added using CRISPR, earning the donor animal the nickname of a “10 gene pig”. Over 100,000 patients are awaiting an organ transplant at any given time, and about 20 of them die each day. This …

COVID 19 Vaccine Mandate – Ethics Update

Dr. Robert Malone changed the world in 1989 when he became the father of the mRNA vaccine platform technology at the famous Salk Institute. While not inventing the COVID mRNA vaccines, a 2015 article in Gene affirms that Malone invented the idea and method used to transfer mRNA into mammalian cells.

Dr. Malone has joined with 17,000 international medical colleagues to oppose COVID-19 vaccine mandates, in accordance with the Nuremburg Code and the Belmont Principles …

Position on Vaccine Mandate


Nebraska Coalition for Ethical Research (NCER) opposes any government mandate imposing COVID-19 vaccination for the following reasons:

1) While some people have discerned it is ethically permissible for them to receive the COVID vaccine, the conscience rights of those who object to receiving one because of its use of cell lines remotely descended from aborted fetal tissue in the creation, production, or testing of the vaccine must be respected.
2) The bioethical principles of beneficence,

Growing Humans in Labratories – Abandoning 14 Day Rule

NCER Commentary:

ALARMING news: The “14 Day Rule” was established by the medical research community as the cutoff for growing human embryos in test tubes because this is the earliest development of the brain and spinal cord which would put the embryo at risk of suffering pain.  But as of this week, the International Society for Stem Cell Research has decided that human embryos can now be grown in the lab without restrictions

Another distressing first in scientific research

Mammalian embryos have been grown outside of a womb. The implications are chilling.

For the first time in Developmental Biology, a mammalian (mouse) embryo has been observed as it developed through half of its gestation period (11 weeks) while outside a natural womb. Using an intricate artificial placenta that provided oxygen and controlled atmospheric pressure, researchers in Israel successfully documented the formation of germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm), …

An international research team from China and the US has made history by successfully injecting human stem cells into macaque monkey embryos, and growing them in the lab for 20 days. This kind of creation is referred to as a chimera, named after a Greek mythological monster, because it is the blending of DNA from distinctly different species. The hypothetical goal is to gain understanding of and new …
