Title: British ignore Manimal Post by: raj on September 05, 2007, 02:48:52 PM British scientists given go-ahead to create human-animal embryos 05.09.07 Animal-human hybrid embryos could be created in British laboratories within months after the fertility regulator gave the controversial research its blessing. Two teams of scientists are poised to start making cow-human hybrids for research into incurable diseases - with at least one project starting by the end of the year. Stem cell expert Dr Stephen Minger, who wants to use the embryos to study diseases such as Alzheimer's, said the work could "revolutionise drug discovery". http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23411074-details/British+scientists+given+go-ahead+to+create+human-animal+embryos/article.do This will not turn out well. |
