Orthodox Judaism has no issue with stem cells, be they embryonic or otherwise. However, stem cells can not be created for the express purpose of research. If additional stem cells remain from the attempts to perform in-vitro fertilization or due to gene therapy requirements, these may be used for research.

Judaism, unlike Christianity, holds that life begins at first breath, not conception. Therefore a stem cell is not a "human life" and can be treated similarly to a non-human animal.

There are less religious Jews who have differing opinions on stem cells, but there is no movement in Judaism that actively condemns stem cell research.
