Natural and synthetic mouse embryos grown by developmental biologist Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz’s research group.

Two research groups have developed mouse embryos “In vitro” from stem cells. They have lives of 8 1/2 days out of a 20 day gestation period. They also face a challenge of getting beyond the 11 day hurdle without a placenta.
This would allow a lab to not have the need for animals from outside sources to test with since they can be grown in house.
The fact that two groups replicated results validates the process. Good research is always replicated by a second group.
This also leads to cures for humans and there is a 14 day rule on human stem cells currently in regards to ethical practices.

With agreed boundaries for ethical treatment it should be embraced by any political party!

I am a Christian and so far I am tentative with the methods. I am concerned on how this will be treated with humans.

@Pfuzylogic i like the idea .. the idea of growing body parts is great and even life itself would be great .. a clone of a person is one that is been around in fiction a long time.. this is interesting.

The Christian adheres to the concept of soul and the dignity of life. I am quite certain that laws will be created that guide ethical practice. I do understand that there are countries that do not go by any guidelines.
