In a letter dated 22/1/2019, this charity stated: “We do not participate in research using human embryos, nor do we support any organisations that conduct research in this area.
“The research that we fund is in the area of obstetrics, not fetal medicine. The research that is undertaken does not require any tissue samples from women who consent to participate in our studies before birth and, even after birth, only placenta and myometrial tissue samples are collected for analysis.” [#AMRC#]
