Abstract

This article examines the definitional challenges surrounding stem cell-based embryo models. Terms like "synthetic embryos" misrepresent their nature and influence public discourse. I argue for a multidisciplinary approach, integrating scientific precision with linguistic and ethical considerations, to ensure clarity, honesty, and respect in both scientific and societal debates.

来自实验室的语言和标签：基于干细胞的胚胎模型辩论中的定义。

本文探讨了围绕基于干细胞的胚胎模型的定义挑战。像“合成胚胎”这样的术语歪曲了它们的性质，影响了公共话语。我主张采用多学科方法，将科学精确性与语言和伦理考虑相结合，以确保科学和社会辩论中的清晰、诚实和尊重。
