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 for as long as they can survive.
WHAT’S NEXT? Artificial wombs have already been created and tested to function outside the body to successfully grow embryos.(see our article from May 14th)
