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 […]

The game changing technique to create babies from skin cells . . . Researchers have previously created mouse eggs from their tail cells using induced pluripotent stem cells, and fertilizing those resulting in viable pups. This breakthrough has now served as the blueprint for the recent successful creation of immature human egg cells, known as […]
